..well, it's no wonder Microsoft has a problem with people 
selling counterfeit "Microsoft" stickers, that's forgery and 
fraud, but it's refreshing to see them caring about it as a 
way to stop software piracy.   

..and, I'm _perfectly_ ok with "losing my right" to run Wintendo 
XP Pro, exactly by selling that right to somebody else and in 
return for money, that's exactly how a lawful sale works. ;o)
