Sabr Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 It's one thing to download Vista and crack it, but it's another to actually make money off pirated copies of it. If I owned Microsoft, and I read that, I'd be kicking myself right now. - Sb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alessandro17 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Why pirate such worthless rubbish when you can have OpenSUSE/Debian/[insert your favorite Linux distro here] for free (legally)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linuxfan66 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Why pirate such worthless rubbish when you can have OpenSUSE/Debian/[insert your favorite Linux distro here] for free (legally)? good point, Alessandro17. Even if you need Vista don't Pirate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro17 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Even if you need Vista I don't, no way. A n00bish friend of mine bought Vista, and after realizing that it was useless he went back to XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djpc47 Posted May 14, 2007 Author Share Posted May 14, 2007 robotskip, if it is inaccurate then either it sucks that megagames is coming up with inaccurate {censored} now.... else by now maybe they're at 245 copies;) jk's... in the end to me its all in good fun... I would have to agree its seems a way too too low number... microsoft whiz, djpc47=real pirate, people selling disney version of Vista = Bootleggers....... Piracy=good, bootlegging=bad..... everything has its ethical limits and bootlegging is beyond one of em;) update: else 244 returns;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trav1085 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I agree with djpc47, about bootlegging. Look at the side of the Vista Ultimate picture, it says "Ulimate", lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwhsh8r Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I agree with djpc47, about bootlegging.

djpc47 Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 lol, just like i have a pair of "okey"'s this is horrible, seen it before, and pirating is to blame, but its just soo funny! i wonder who the 244 poor saps are? Piracy is to blame but for a large part its piracy done directly by the bootleggers.... there has been known versions of vista, xp, other versions of windows based off of beta, alpha's and other leaks that were pretty much totally reworked around just for the purpose of bootlegging which is alot worse then p2p piracy and so forth, see the problem with this is that people who buy these copies not only have a broken version of windows but they spread that broken version of xp and this is a cause for false bug reports, driver incompatibility issues and so forth(you can just imagine the issues that can arise from this, think about a auto mechanic who uses a paper clip to fix a car;), just to save a buck... same diff)... how can I say its like sharing spyware or adware "free" software with friends.... see most "piracy" groups will agree the goal is to release quality warez as a just a way of being a rebel, learning how to crack program protections so forth with a lot more concern for a rep then how much money they get from it... else its just wanting to share with a friend or 2, but that I don't consider as true "piracy" theres a diff between a Pirate and a bootlegger and that is that a bootlegger just is in it for the cash and a pirate is in for the experience, thrill and/or rep... and then theres a diff between a consumer sharing with a friend... which I will forever disagree that it's related to "piracy" of any form you may also notice if you ever read a NFO in your life that most say "try and buy" in one way or another I will say in these days yes p2p's is a little abusive when it comes to "piracy" as RIAA and MPAA define it... but at same time I think its a great reflection of times if you will.. I personly think they both brought it upon themselves, I believe corporate censorship is largely to blame... look for meaning in any music made now a day and you'll find for the most part its dull and meaningless, else a seeming desperate attempt.....
