Please give us facts about the licensing not opinion
oldsysprog | 09/19/07
|
 
Here it is...
mrOSX | 09/19/07
|
  
AACSLA collects the license fees
Ed Bott | 09/19/07
|
   
So then Dell does not pay Microsoft for Vista...
mrOSX | 09/19/07
|
   
Since you are so much better connected than Iam...
mrOSX | 09/19/07
|
   
Collect, sure but...
Mike Hunt | 09/19/07
|
    
Also to add to my unproven theory ...
mrOSX | 09/19/07
|
     
Don't forget to include Apple in your conspiracy theory
NonZealot | 09/19/07
|
    
Why would they distribute to members?
Ed Bott | 09/19/07
|
     
Yes and they dont have investors(members) who expect...
mrOSX | 09/19/07
|
     
So they keep the money for themselves? (NT)
Mike Hunt | 09/19/07

Cooperative licensing
Ed Bott | 09/19/07

Why else?

Character assassination?
NonZealot | 09/19/07

Ed's main point was over performance
