So for the same reason you don't buy books, or art or music, as long as I can copy it I don't care. Sweet principles

If you walk into a store and you found a $1000 suit, and you can't afford it, you can't just take it and say they are over pricing it, this doesn't make sense especially if accross the street you can find the thrift store that has a reasonable suit for free!

Why don't you use Linux for free instead of stealing??? I don't understand really

Microsoft Office 2010 Starter Edition is the replacement of Microsoft Works, and it will be bundled with the new machines that already comes today with Works. This would boost Microsoft office business even more, because there is no more Non-Ribbon office applications in Microsoft platform, even Wordpad got ribbons in Win7, which means people will be extremely familiar with the ribbon. One more thing, anybody says he hates the ribbon is a big IDIOT, the ribbon is the best UI component ever released, and if you just can't admit it, go f*** yourself. or sleep with your OpenOffice.

It replaces Microsoft Works, there is no more Works, just Office Starter edition

"Snow Leopard did do a better job of recognizing the hardware -- it did it without a hitch" Sure it does, Apple did both Software & Hardware, if it didn't recognize any hardware part suing them would be a right thing to do. on the other hand I am still amazed on how Microsoft can manage to support this huge number of hardware parts that they didn't even know about, and not even exist yet.
