on a slightly related subject to what bruised said:
http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000180040730/
can i say that i somewhat agree with bruised? i dislike big coporations and the corrupt politicians they buy with the "donations".
but i kinda like m$, too, and their products. i don't think the world would be a better place if they didn't have this much power...
i also agree with bruised about the USA copyright issues he talked about. i don't know about asian countries though.
going back to the subject,
have i ever been prisoner of the unlock code? there is no incident that i can recall immediately. so it's either i have never been, or have been but wasn't a significant problem.
thanks,
msafi,
Hi, MSAFI. I too agree with many of what I consider 'off-topic' comments made in this thread. But I didn't respond to them because I feel that they are just that - off-topic. If I wanted to exchange views with people on policitics, the ills and wickedness of large corporations, government corruption, communist china, etc. etc., I'll pick an audience and a forum that is appropriate for that kind of exchange, which indeed can become quite engaging. I just didn't think that this was the proper place to do so. That being said, it certainly was never my intention to stop people from speaking their mind ... and if one wants to use the software UNLOCK code to "rant" about politics and big corporations, then so be it.
... Of course ... "this is all merely my humble opinion."
