In company or at home, are you using pirate or authentic Windows ?

Replying to [tonyinspection]:

Hi Tony,

Do you want people to stand up i say Yes i have a fake windows software?, if in UK a company is found to have unlicensed software they would be in serious trouble,

I bought a laptop in China and later found the windows was not real copy, microsoft updates if turn on would check.

Replying to [JBsportsuk]:

You are right, John. Maybe a anonymous vote will do better.

Replying to [tonyinspection]:Yes,i use the window.

Replying to [tonyinspection]: YEs I am using a not licenced windows,because now its better to do it this way , because its very hard to get of licenced copy her in my country, and by the way I´ve got achinese laptops and they sold it to me like that, and i didnt realized it was a fake copy, so its not only my fault ;)

In my opinion, it will be sucidal to used pirated Windows. Not because I am in favor of Bill Gate, but it is because Windows itself has so many problems and there are so many virus attacking Windows OS everyday that not having the real Window will spell trouble to your computer.

For example, Window will auto- upgrade and update your window. And when there is a new update against hacker or virus, your pirated windows will be left behind.

Another example. Pirated windows experienced more troubles than original windows. We do not have to be a rocket scientist to know that simply for the fact that a crappy windows will become even more crappy by an amateur copier.

Another example. Software and applications will not run smoothly on pirated windows. Or, the other way round too. I detest greatly for the fact that the application shut down on me after I finished half the project. In this case, I would rather buy the original one than the pirated one.

Final example. It is not only bad for your software, it is also bad for your hardware too. Shutting down, restarting upteen time, hard drive making noisy sounds, overheating, wrong registry files, wrong setting .....blahblah......

My point is that Window is bad. Pirated Window is worse.
