So much for honesty.
I know here in Turkey most cannot afford legal copies of windows.
I was told that 75% were iffy copies.
Most I have talked to computer shops etc said that if Mr, Bill would only charge or expect 50-100 usd per copy then they would be more reluctant to comply.
I know I paid 200 usd just a few months back for my legal upgrade, not full copy in Saudi Arabia
Something to think if you could sell 10 copies at 200 usd, then you could sell thousands at the reduced price, guess marketing experts missed this point.
Most people want to operate legally.
Just M/S is out of most of these 3rd world countries price range.
I am sure this would make even more profit in the western world, and third world countries.
Not saying piracy is correct but he invites this on himself, and in return it costs all of us trying to do things correctly.
