Trust a Russian court to be fair?
Look, I am against software piracy in a very big way but I think this case needs to be looked at closely by Gates and MS and if needed they need to step up and ask the courts to make the punishment fit the crime.

If indeed the teacher was unaware that what he was doing was illegal then I see no need to ruin his life. Perhaps some "public service" time explaining it to other teachers in the same situation?
