<As no, I don't think they should work for nothing....but they should also realize that "pirating" is a great distribution channel that eventually leads in many cases to the purchasing of registered copies and upgrades...Sure, its sloppy but I don't sell many good software developers starving either.> Justifying pirating, Jim? Maybe that's why you won't be buying a Pentium III ... <This is big, if I was AMD I'd already have the PR churning.> If AMD wanted to get some pointers, they should go to Steve Jobs and the Apple PR department.
