this could backfire for mr. bill. they can just have linux installed instead. looks good on paper but does not really change anything.

What a great thing for freeware (Linux), After all why would anyone pay for Windows when they can get Linux for free.

I just hope that they wil not prohibt musicless pc’s. RIAA would like that, if the installment of RIAA recordings is mandatory. At least in the USA, RIAA can surely have that legislated.

After all because pc’s come without music people are forced to copy music.

Of course the pc maker lobby will push to have non RIAA recordings allowed’ That way the pc makers can then install the cheapest (read worthless) music from, from countries without any legal/copyright system.

Meh. It’s kind of sad to me only because now companies in China (even the largest ones) have made a lot of money because they never paid a dime for software. If they have to choose between getting imprisoned for NOTHING or buying software, then a lot of companies are just going to go out of business.

I’ll never pay a dime for Windows. It’s not worth it. With all the upgrades that come out every so often. Upgrades are never as good as full reinstalls (I’m talking only about Windows). The 95-98 transition was trash.
