nice point DG. u wud be surprised that people do follow it.
my pc is an assembled one and the chap who provided me the components also gave me the software that i needed. they were complementary ofcourse

that means that they were versions of the real thing hijacked by Red Rackham
now it happened so a few weeks ago that i required one of those things which provide a regional script layout for a regular keyboard and so applied to the guy. i was surprised when he charged me 6000 of the finest for the darned thing!!!! i asked arnd and the same thing happened everywhere else. they all refused to retail pirated versions of the software as it was locally developed!!!!! and they all scattered MS and Adobe packages and other stuff like Maya and all like blue bloods scatterin doubloons for the plebs.
it was heartining really. to see them support the local industry thus
cheers
