NO, there are some great hackers from non-developed countries, and although there are hackers in developed countries, I’m talking about the majority

most hackers are from russia, you’re from india (I assume) so you don’t seem to know a lot about developed countries

and if people in developed countries don’t buy their copies as you say, how do companies such as apple get money from itunes

OK Kid, I don’t think people in ‘non-developed’ countries are smart enough to tackle security of powerfully built secure software systems! They don’t make cracks! Neither torrents were created by them. Get a life. Use some common sense!

Microsoft is trying to position software as a service you subscribe, rather than something you buy and be done with it. As much as this is a good business move, I’m not sure how many people (individuals) are comfortable with “renting” software instead of “owning” it.

I would much rather buy a version and have the right to use it forever instead of forking out $100 every year. For most home users, that would be at least 7-10 years (lots of people still use Windows xp and Office 2003)

Microsoft has also removed the “3 license” home editions – so if you have 3 computers at home you need to spend $140 per computer, which is very, very steep.

That’s a bad move – this will push the casual user towards OpenOffice and the 3rd-world-country user to piracy.

Wow… What a masterpiece statement… :D :D

Would you mind explaining this:–> “”Pirated Copies are also selling by the Microsoft (But it is a hidden truth)”"

If the all-inclusive version costs 140$, I am in for it.
