1. There are millions of ex-pats living abroad.

2. Many people do not use their real name on Usenet. For all we know,
your real name is Sen. Larry Craig and you're posting from a Mens'
Restroom stall in LAX, using WiFi.

3. How do you know my name isn't really "Alias"?

Sorry....wrong....perhaps you should actually do a little reading on Pavol
and his experiments. Your replies are mirrors of the results from his
research.

My points obviously went right over your head or you're playing dumb for

True, but not the right course of action. MS should have to prove it in
a court of law, not the paying customer having to bend over and take it
from MS everytime the buggy DRM tries to check and see if your OS
validates, or has a 'genuine' check.

Nope, not while you continue to speak gibberish and not being able to defend
your allegations. I have no problem having a difference of opinion with
someone but you certainly better be able to come up with something coherent,
otherwise you are exactly what you're accusing other people of being in your
own posts.
