And the BSDs, of course.

This is a non-issue for all of them.

Yep. For fun, I actually read a proprietary software licence. It's alarming how many restrictions they put on it, beyond the understandable denial of copying, reverse engineering, and in some cases no warranty.

If that crap ever becomes law here, boo hoo. Linux is always there to fall back on :D

Yep, it's actually weird to see people voluntarily choose a vendor (cough * Microsoft * cough) that is openly hostile to its customers, but hey maybe convenience weighs up to being treated like dirt...

Maybe a couseling program for self-abuse syndrome. I undertsand people cut themselves, don't eat, eat and throw it up, etc. We could add using Microsoft Windows to the list. We could even have an entry in the Red Book for it under personality disorders.
