C'mon, Rick, tell me that you think that MS DRM stops anyone who wants

a cracked version of Windows. Get real. Anyone who wants one can find

one. DRM just hurts those who are trying to follow the rules, when the

vendor doesn't live up to their end of the bargain, or installs a

rootkit that causes problems, goes out of business, or decides they

don't want you doing what you're doing.

DRM is a bad technique that doesn't work.
