ELUA
The only rights Microsoft has are the rights that we collectivly allow them to have, please draw an alalogy between this and the pre revolution colonists were they wrong to break the law as defined by good ol George? People rule, no governments, not companies without consumer support MS would go the way of OS/2! It is up to the individual what role they want to play in excercising thier right to influence what is and what is not legal. As for me, I stop them at the firewall on they way out the door! I resurect and use all prior versions of the OSes that I have purchased (I got them for a reason and the reason does not disapear with "newer" "better") If it is not backward compatable I have a righteous grievance that I determine gives me certain rights not covered in the ELUA and while my choice is to not hack, (I would if I could "read knew how") I support these folks with the position they are taking against King Bill and his unlawful (from a consumers rights position) actions. I do not under any circumstances wish to deprive true geniuos from making a fair profit at thier endeavors but don't tread on me!!!!!
