William,

MS Office was distributed for years by the computer manufacturers. I put up a copy of my invoice from Gateway

Show some evidence that the manufacturers were provided Office for free or admit you don't know what you are talking about...

Just because Gateway didn't pass the cost on to you directly and itemized doesn't mean that that they got it for free. Ever go to an auto dealer and see all the things listed on the sticker that are "included" for "no charge"? Do you honestly believe that those things are free?

Some people are just so blinded by their hatred...
