BSA's Crackdown of Illegal Software [Renamed]

[boybi]

If Micosoft is so paranoid of piracy and why doesn't it just put some SERIOUS countermeasures into its software to prevent piracy? It has taken the step already with the retail version of Windows XP, which matches specific hardware components to a CD key.

hehe, mas magaling kasi mga hackers kesa mga programmers ng MS

[Blackraven]

Sh*t, hardly anyone would be spared from these inspections.

I just HOPE they only look at the OS (because my copy is legit) pero what if they look at other software (my Microsoft Office 2k3 is pirated so only costs 500 pesos).

I too, won't want my PC confiscated because I need it badly. Kung kukunin nila, wala na akong PC for high school.

Paano na?

Meron na akong maso sa tabi ng computer ko. Pag nilusob ako ng NBI, wawasakin ko kagad ito para walang ebidensya.

You can download and install OPENOFFICE. Its free and looks & works like MS Office. Its also able to open and save into MS format documents.

ni-raid yung state university namin dito a few days ago. puro pirated windows ang OS. umabot daw ng millions yung fine. yung ibang schools naman tinago mga PC

I guess UP diliman will not be raided.... puro linux kasi.

[ghosthunter]

dto naman mga 80% of internet cafes stayed closed for a few days, kahit ngaun closed pa rin. talagang guilty puro pirated kc

That's why my shop have been doing brisk business the last few days. Many of the other shops have closed because of the raids. Since I have original Windows licenses for my PCs, I can stay open.

Iyan ang napapala ng nasa legal, magandang kita.

Hehe, yung ibang lanshop owners nagkukumahog ngayon lumipat sa Linux. Nung tinanong ko bakit, kesyo mahirap lang daw sila at maliit lang ang kita ng shop (galit pa!). Hello!?! In the first place hindi sila dapat nagbukas kung wala silang pambili ng original softwares. May gana pa silang magreklamo kung bakit may mga P10/hr. na computer shops. Kung original ba softwares ng mga ito tatagal sila sa ganyang rate? Sobrang kupad ng ROI niyan at puro pagod nalang aabutin ng mayari. Kaso marami sila, kaya todo depensa sa kanilang maling gawain.

There is this internet cafe at the second floor of the Gilmore IT center, that has Windows XP evaluation copy installed on all their computers. The computer I used had so many apps and games installed. I thought this version of Windows, as the name suggests, is designed to have its features crippled?

Sa pagkakaalam ko, hindi ito crippled, kailangan mo nga lang iregister after 30 days of evaluation.
