Open Source Software Kisses Goodbye to Piracy?
,----[ Quote ]
| Has the increasingly common application and development of open
| source software helped kiss goodbye to a portion of software piracy?
|
| Quite obviously, internet piracy is unlikely to drop off entirely - even
| if open source applications fulfill your wildest dreams some users will
| either feel this continued urge to pirate. However, open source softwared
| oes seem a sensible and viable alternative these days.

| So, please, Microsoft, defend your own products, and don't allow users to
