When my work buy new computers, from HP/Compaq they never use the XP Pro that comes with the machine, but instead install a preprepared 2000 Image on the HD.

I have a couple of Genuine XP pro cd's here...

Windows is crap.  It's runing the planet. It you must have it, for gawd's sake, don't pay Bill Gates for it!

If you use XP, stealing it is a moral obligation. You must not aid and abett the dark forces  of Microsoft.



Death to Gates & Ballmer!


But we cannot condone piracy of any kind!

He didnt actually post any refrence to any copywrited material. You did (not that I checked, being in work and not having access to newsgroups. So i edited your post "just to be sure").

With reguard to what Boing has posted, well if he wants to openly admit he uses a pirate copy of windows on a public forum, more fool him than anyone else. He didnt post a link, or any idea to whereas the material can be obtained. (if he did and I have missed something, i apologise).



You might want to spell "Copyright" correctly :-)
