Verily I say unto thee, that Roy Schestowitz spake thusly:

Will Microsoft be giving free complimentary Windows licenses to all
their unpaid guinea pigs?

Incredible isn't it. With all Microsoft's vast resources, they still
have to leech from the community.

Why these victims stick with MS is a mystery. If they're going to be
voluntary testers then they'd be as well testing some of the many FOSS
projects that need support, at least that way they end up with software
that is Free.
