So why should we listen to the rants of a self-declared criminal?

Anyway, Windows XP won't run for long without being allowed to phone
home to Redmont and report by whom it is being used.  So you better
be a _careful_ criminal.

Or a stupid liar.


I fail to understand why you continuosly consider sharing that
kind of critical information as a criminal activity (just do that
outside of corporate environment).  What if this attitude was
taught (and enforced) in school?  Being pedantic regarding
licenses and eulas may result in confining oneself to a 80x25
ghetto buffer.

So there's an inherent right to use Windows without paying for it,
since the alternative is unattractive?

Must be the pursuit of happiness includes pretty GUIs.  Of course,
there *are* free pretty GUIs, but maybe the pursuit of happiness
includes Microsoft GUIs.


Please notice that the American constitution asserts the right to the
_pursuit_ of happiness, not the right to happiness itself.

The pursuit is already possible by earning enough money to _purchase_
a licence to software with a pretty GUI.

Actually, it's the declaration of independence, and it guarentees
the right to the purfuit of happinefs.
