Oh my, I am guilty! I can't help it, why purchase the expensive original when the free one is very available. Well, it is okay since I use it for personal consumption. It is only illegal when being used in business establishments like internet cafes or school. But me, I haven't tried the genuine one. I think the difference is not noticeable.

Yeah I know. Someday I will buy the genuine one. But I don't have the money right now. So I'll stick to this one as of the moment. I'm still a student, you know. I can't use Ubuntu since there are features not available.

Why do we need to use pirated versions when the user friendly linux operating systems are completely FREE. I am not a user of Windows and Thank God, I am not using any pirated versions as all of them are free. So I prefer to use Fedora Linux and Ubuntu Linux. Thank You. Your PC could be a cash machine. Look at my profile to know how.

That's so cool. I have only used Ubuntu in my VMware. You're not a gamer right It is really hard to play latest games if your using Linux? I am fan fan of COD4 and Counter strike Source and it will never run on ubuntu right? Thanks for replying. It really depends on user in selecting Operating System because it varies the softwares needs by the user.
