Default Copy of Windows 98 Second Edition

Maybe you ought to read "The Greatest Generation", and get back to me on
that.
If you think personal values, and one's sense of personal responsibility and
accountability, haven't changed much since then, then ....

This subject has nothing to do with computer knowledge. This concerns
the difference between right and wrong, scruples, morality and
integrity,
nothing else.

"scruples, morality and integrity"??? Wrong era and wrong
generation
for that! You old fogie, you!!!!

All I have to say about your comment is: Do, Write and Say unto others
AS
you would want them to Do, Write and Say to you. It would be a better
world if everyone believed and did this. Scruples, morality and
integrity has
NEVER been connected with era or generation. It has never gone out of
style.
Of course, there is nothing that would change your mind if you had your
mind
set on "wrong era and wrong generation" no matter what. Anyway, you do
not know what generation I am from, this may give you a hint: I go to
University
classes. Right now, I am taking Philosophy classes. Maybe you should be
going to those classes.

Still blatantly promoting software piracy, I see.

Why is it piracy when the manufacturer no longer sells the item in
question?

And don't give me "well you can buy it on e-bay" crap. There is no
garantee that anyone selling win-98 on e-bay is selling a version that
*can* be re-sold or used according to it's EULA, or that the person
selling it isin't still using the same product key that they're
purporting to sell.

If it's a book, a music or movie cd that is still available for retail
sale, then yup, there is such a thing a piracy.

If it's any of the above that is no longer in print or being stamped or
sold, then making copies of it and passing it around is not piracy.


People who copy ANY softeware are sinners in the eyes of God and they
WILL go straight to HELL when they die. This needs no further
explanation.

Normanny,

They have one on sale at Ebay. I just went up there. It is Microsoft Windows
98SE Full Version W/CD Media, Boot Disk, COA Sealed. I did not catch the
price. It would not be too expensive and it would be the safest way to go.
They even have the name of the store "American Electronics Mart/DCC Inc." It
says something about an Ebay store.

Just calling it like I see it. If you don't want to be called a "top

usenet posting etiquette.

| Aren't they "distributing" it - by way of sale?

These questions WERE answered before IN DETAIL.


Quit lying and just answer the question. You didn't answer that
question before.

If your memory is so bad, I have them preserved on the web page
to which I directed you.


What-ever you posted or what-ever web-page you're blathering about is
garbage.

Microsoft holds that right, you and others hold no such authority...


Answer the question MEB. Answer it here.

Are Windows-98 sellers on E-bay violating copyright law by
"distributing" it by way of sale?

Hi Glee,
I didn't see the installation files in the View All Files, in fact when I
hit OK, it doesn't do anything. Anyway thanks for the help! I think I might
get it from other sources.

What a bunch of maroons -

Getting all bent out of shape over the morality of passing around copies
of a piece of software that Macro$haft hasn't even sold for 4 years and
will never sell again.

This is the same Milkro$haft company that has been fined many times for
illegal business practices. And they've bought their way out of being
prosecuted as an illegal monopoly because they gave the US gov't all the
back doors they need to get into YOUR XP or vista computer.

Micro$oft has a proven record of being a sociopathic corporate entity.
They don't deserve to be treated with morality because they have none.

No, it was the hippies. Sorry, I wasn't part and parcel of that
"movement", and my values echo those of my parents, brought up during the
Great Depression, not the Boomer set. I served during the Vietnam War,
while they were getting high on acid.
