   I feel ashame.

   Now in China, Windows XP Home only sale 339RMB(58USD)， and Office 2007 Student/Home sale 199RMB(29USD), but people still use crack.

   I'm using Windows Vista(genuine) and OpenOffice.

   Maybe I should feel ashamed, Kino. We Americans unleashed Bill Gates on the world. Wish I could take that one back! :)

   Another note: Bill Gates upset about piracy? "Arrrr! I'm here to board your innovative software company and absorb all your treasures, so you can't provide me with real competition! Arrrr! The high seas of computing belong to me alone! Arrrr!"
