IBM was the monolith computer supplier in the 60's to 70s, correct?
Are they not the ones who laughed at Bill Gates and company for their
dream of having a computer in every home?

And the problem with articles that you dutifully relay to us is this -
the information provided cannot be verified as being accurate.
The way I saw it is that the article is just a reiteration of some very

themselves paying for music, movies, software, and Vista, and end up
being treated like *THEY* are the criminal.
This is one very good reason piracy has been on the rise.
