I haven't seen him lie once. However I've seen you lie many times.

You also say things that make no sense. How can what you said be the truth
when a company entity can't physically have a rear end? More blah blah BS
from alias.

Ladies & Gentlemen ( I say that in preference to children ) If a novice or a
new user comes to this site to gather information or opinions they usually
end up reading a bun fight between pro and anti MS.
Someone posts a question and before you know it the question disappears and
is consumed by said bun fighting.
For us experienced users this might be fun to read but all it is doing is
confusion the novices outhere.
Yes I agree that the activation rules can be a pain at times, but then again
so is getting a speeding ticket but that is life. I am forever guinea pigging
software as well as O/S's so I reload windows heaps of time thus having to
ring for activation. It's just luck that now I'm using XP 64 bit and there is
no need to ring up.
People complain about MS being a monopoly ( and they are ) but only because
of shrewd marketing and filling a niche in the marketplace.
20 years ago would have been the time to create another O/S to compete with
MS ( without having to battle in court ) but it never happened.
There are also other open sourse O/S's out there like linux etc but the
learning curve is too great for some people and seeing as the majority use
Windows od some sort getting help is easier for Windows than Linux.

There's a difference between a metaphor and your BS. Either way I was not
addressing the statement, I was addressing the fact that you called it
"truth". That was NOT a metaphor. As usual you are lost and completely
hopeless.

No, they think you are committing act(s) of piracy, which is no less
insulting.

Most recent idiotic quote added to KICK (Klassic Idiotic Caption Kooks):
"It would be nice if there was a check to see if you were running an
activated/validated version of Windows before you were allowed to post
in any of these news groups. If you're not activated/validated your post
automatically gets deleted.
That would get rid of the Linsux Luzzzzzzzzers once and for all."

At least you can now admit when you are wrong. That's a step in the right

I addressed this entire thread. But I understand that you are not capable
of comprehending such things.

I find it hilarious that you can insult people all day long then cry like a
baby when you get insulted.

I look forward to many more idiot comments from you.

Not true at all. When I come knock on your door should I be insulted
because you've locked me out?

Security is NOT and NEVER WILL BE an accusation.

A better analogy would be a hotel where you have the key to the room and
you've paid for it but need to identify yourself every time you want to
go to the room you've paid to use.

Fact: WPA and WGA are assuming you are running a pirated copy of Windows
until you prove otherwise. The *fact* that this doesn't bother you is
very revealing. The fact that pirated copies don't have to be activated
reveals how pathetic MS' "anti piracy" programs really are.

I have to go to a full security building every once in a while. I have
to call ahead and the person I have an appointment with has to meet me
in the lobby.
He has to show his security badge and be identified even though he has
worked there for over 7 years and the same security guard has been there
for maybe 3 years. It is a ritual, not an accusation. it's now what the
world is coming to be.
Get over it.
Activation & verification is what it is.
Nothing more, nothing less.

Hum...not sure what alias is going to do with this.

If they have to meet you in the lobby are they calling you a thief or a no
good POS solicitor?

I guess it depends if there is a camera there or not. If there is then you
are being called a thief and you should sue them for recording an image of
you without your permission!!!!!

Hehehe...

To use your analogy - to get the key to your room you appear that the front
desk and make payment etc and sign various pieces of paperwork.
Your key to gain access to content provided by Microsoft is to WPA and WGA
your copy of Windows at the front desk of Microsoft - once you are activated
and validated your PC has its key to access WGA protected content etc.
Think of actually buying the license at some store as just paying for the
flight and cab to get you to your hotel.
Until you actually check in your booking is worthless, and just standing
outside saying you paid to get here is equally worthless.
Check in (WPA/WGA) and get your keys.
 
Hi Mike

I have most of the participants in this thread killfiled, but I am getting
the gist of the conversation.

I did want to add another good analogy for for WPA/WGA. When you visit just
about any major retail store nowadays, you take all of the items you are
purchasing to the check out and pay for them. Then, before you can walk out
the door, another employee must check all of the bags against the items on
your receipt to make sure you haven't stolen something between the check out
and the door. People seem to go through this experience with no problems
whatsoever.

Also, for those who believe that Microsoft allows piracy to gain a better
distribution base for Windows, they need to check the following website.

I get the key at a hotel when I pay and, if I pay cash, I don't need to
show anyone any ID. I get the license to use the software when I pay
along with a receipt. That should be proof enough. It's obvious that
you've been brainwashed to accept this nonsense as normal.
