I got a computer virus from the list, i think, a few
weeks ago.  I had to instal and reinstall NT, a legal
copy, and download the service pack 3 times.

Today, i got a threatening mailer from microsoft with
pics of white collar people in a police line up, and
warnings about "Staying on the right side of the law."

What dose this mean?  That when you go to their site,
they spy on you, read your computer, and then obtain
your address to send threatening mail if they suspect
you are down using pirated software.  When i loaded NT,
i did not enter the serial number, as i cannot find the
certificate that came with the computer.  So, i used a
legit windows office serial number.

Who said 1984 was overblown?  Bill, if you're watching,
eat me!!
