Found this...well...great

"On Wednesday, July 26, Microsoft Corp. will hold an event in the Los Angeles area featuring a monster truck demolishing a wall of counterfeit software, as well as an announcement regarding the company's significant donation from its anti-piracy recoveries to a local Boys & Girls Club. This unique event is sure to delight spectators as well as inform consumers about the magnitude of the software counterfeiting problem across the nation. The illegal manufacture and distribution of counterfeit software is a growing problem in the United States that consumers should be aware of so that they can make knowledgeable buying decisions and protect themselves from being duped into spending good money on bad software.

Anyone dumb enough to manage to buy counterfit software deserves what they get. If you're gonna bootleg it, bootleg it. If you want to buy it, don't get it in a generic jewel case at a copmuter show.

This is a pretty funny idea, kudos to microsoft. Almost make me want to BUY WinME (dripping with sarcasm).
