To continue to try to justify your theft marks you as a liberal.

1. I'm not the one that's decided to "reframe the debate" by changing the meaning of words, a classic liberal tactic.

2. I find it more than funny that you refer to it as "my" theft. I don't use Windows and I won't be using Vista. You might want to check out my tagline.

It has nothing to do with Microsoft.

It has to do with copying (stealing) software you haven't paid for, not to mention agreeing to a contract when you install the product and then reneging on your word.

You might not have ever done that, but based on your entire attitude, a liberal attitude, I'd bet plenty you have done it dozens, if not hundreds of times.

Anyway, carry on. This conversation is going no where and I'm sure you will never be reformed but always think that things are free and your word is just a tactic to get what you want.

You can have the last rant. Use it to justify theft to yourself, you will never convince any ethical person.
