I had a MVP nominate himself, so any MVP that wants or needs to be
inducted into the Microscum MVP Hall of Shame, please feel free to drop
me an email!

So without any further ado, the newest inductee to the Microscum MVP
Hall of Shame, by his own request, is:

Robert Moir - MicroMoron!
http://microscum.com/rmoir/

Congratulations Robert!

I would like to PROUDLY nominate David Candy, for his OUTSTANDING (futile)
attempts.

David is not a MVP anymore, and hasn't been for quite awhile.

What futile attempts? When he gives advice, it is usually very good
from what I've read, and those that have the most problems with him are
mainly those not bright enough to understand him, or those with a bat up
their arse and have absolutely no sense of humor.

There are a few MVPs that are deserving of induction into the Microscum
MVP Hall of Shame, much more so than David.

So? If someone (let's just use the term "license" as you use in this
instance for now) BOUGHT the license, should they then be deemed thieves and
pirates for using their "paid for" license (software) for their personal
use?

Look up in the dictionary "Thief", and see if one of the definitions state
"making legal purchases and using said purchases for personal use".

Look up "piracy" and see if there is a definition "making legal purchases
and using said purchases for personal use"

Now, consider what breaking an agreement is, and find where that translates
into thievery and piracy.

That's what is said in the EULA, AFTER the fact of the sale of a copy of

Don't forget to read the outside of the packaging, where it says the
same thing.

It is public knowledge that Microsoft software is licensed unless stated "OK
to share with friends" (which does appear on some items, like the Security
CD Feb 2004 and the Service Pack 2 CD). Microsoft publishes this on their
websites. A store not making a big point about licensing does not break the
license between you and Microsoft.

MS's EULA claim is legally unsubstantiated. That is the only fact.

LOL! Those are free software distributions.

MS allows copies of their copyright software to be sold as retail
products. Then, AFTER THE FACT OF RETAIL SALE, MS tries to change the
fact of the retail sale in their post-sale shrink-wrap license.

NO ONE IS FORCING MS TO ALLOW THE SALE OF COPIES OF THEIR COPYRIGHTED
SOFTWARE AS A RETAIL PRODUCT.

So is MS's post-sale licensing claim legally enforceable? Just because
MS claims something in their license doesn't make it legally so. MS is
not a law unto itself.

Most of the public are totally ignorant of MS's post-sale shrink-wrap
licensing scheme, and it shows how desperate you really are that you
have to try to deceive with your false claim of "public knowledge!"
