Yes, I was thinking about that today. That seems more than unfair. I know there are ways to get permission to repair etc., but what a drag.
I don't know if I'll haul my PC home, but the laptops, presently on Vista, will have been owned long enough to not pay duty. Well, that's if the rules haven't changed. We'll see.
It was more to do with the right to use. I guess until something needs updating, it would just be like any other trip.
