Re: OT: Which is better: XP or 2000? > Another Piracy Discussion

Your just making a copy of something. Stealing deprives the owner of use of the stolen goods, you can't "copy" a car. That is how they are different.

But your taking it from them. If murder isn't stealing then copyright infringement isn't. Anyway, this will have to continue later. I have to be going.

I guess so. In the same way murder is stealing. I mean, you are taking something from them, their life.

But we don't call it stealing so it isn't.

Re: OT: Which is better: XP or 2000? > Another Piracy Discussion

Why would I need to be careful?

OK, worse case scenario. Big bad MS relay is spying on me. They report that to the software companies.

How would they use that evidence in court? Spying on...

Re: OT: Which is better: XP or 2000? > Another Piracy Discussion

No, if someone burns a copy or downloads from say, kazaa, they did not steal anything.

They did however commit a crime. But that crime was not theft.

Stealing would be if I broke into a store...

Re: OT: Which is better: XP or 2000? > Another Piracy Discussion

Ah but there is where your argument is flawed.

Stealing would require me to take something, thus depriving the owner of use of the original. If I steal a car the car is gone, the owner no longer...

Re: OT: Which is better: XP or 2000? > Another Piracy Discussion

I will have to ask the friend that I got it from. He works at a large company and I asked him if he could "borrow" an XP disc for me.

I know it is not XP home, it is XP pro or some variant of it.

Re: OT: need help installing Win98SE on new HD

Well then if you don't know enough to fix all the problems with XP then go with 98.

Unless you plan on doing games, 98 really will do everything you will want it to do.

You don't exactly need...

I would like to know how it has managed to "phone home" without an internet connection. Unless all XP machines came with a satellite up link to allow wireless communication with the MS mother ship.

Re: OT: need help installing Win98SE on new HD

You should install XP, unless your system is older and can't run it. There really isn't any reason to still be using any of MS's older OS'es.

Re: OT: Which is better: XP or 2000? > Another Piracy Discussion

I have XP and I never had to register it. I have changed my GFX card and it never asked my to register XP either.

And if it did, I could EASILY find a way to "circumvent" the registration.

Re: WindowsXP + Space Empires IV = No Working TCP/IP play

I had a similar problem. I finally just disconnected my router and connected my one computer directly to the modem to play.

I forwarded the ports and every, but it still wouldn't work.

Re: Star Wars Mod - II (Sci-Fi Xover Mod)

Why can you build the death star prototype in this mod? Wasn't it only used to test the idea of the super laser?
