�  I truly feel that there are too damn many incredibly talented kids out
�  there to have them give up because thier economic situation makes it
�  impossible to afford even the tools they need to make something of them
�  selves.  The prices of programming utils are absolutely outrageous!!!!!
�  IE:  Bordland C++ $339.00  MS Visual Basic $469 ...etc...etc...
�  the thought of some kid dropping a dream because of the price of the
�  tools he needs to create makes me sick!!
�  What do you feel is a worse crime?  Microsoft not getting that extra
�  $400 dollars that the original programmer was probably paid a crappy
�  $15 dollars an hour for sweating bullets over??  Or, prosecuting someone
�  for giving another the ability to write something that could very well
�  benefit us all?

thought I Would Never read it all <g>.. I Must agree Somewhat With you
nevarre, I Mean gessh, maybe another bill gates might spring up?..
who knows what someone could make out of themselves With a Little
Self taught knowledge, I Myself am on the borderline With this Subject,
I looked For a long time for qb45 and finially i resorted to getting a copy
from my friend. It Wasn't No Where to be Found to Buy... What Gets better Is
trying to Find the MiscroSofts Quick Basic BIBLE... Now I played Heck
to but that book, I Drove to i know over 30 Books Stores looking For it, And
All Said Mickeysoft Discontinued it along with the Qb45 Software..

My Question Is, How Is it Piracy If it's Not Made No more?..
Would It Be illegal To Sell a 1968 Corvette?.. it's Not Made no more..

Nuff Said <g>
