Ever read that EULA? Read it next time, it pretty much screws you outta everything.

yes, but i was under the impression that forcing a user to upgrade to the newest software just to take their money is not right. also the fact that if i wanted to buy a AMD chip to run my linux computer, i would have to somehow get around the crazy MS crap. also, i've never seen a EULA on a CPU before, so that's something new. usually you buy the CPU to run the programs, not for it to scream at you that your programs are 'out of date' and 'need to be upgraded' so that MS can steal even more money from you.
I love first because of the late nights, the unparralleled stress, the excitement, the emotion. Because of the close defeats, the close victories. Because of the pride, the sense of accomplishment, the feeling of embettering the world. But most of all, because of you, the other teams. - Keith Chester [more]
