I don't know how you can say I am really coping it...I got the executables
from
ID Software web site...I own the Quake datafiles from the Amiga
version....this
isn't copying as I see it...I see copying as get the CD/Disk and copying it
onto say
another CD/Disk without paying to do so, I bought it on the Amiga.

Have you ever used Windows recently?...take it from me, there are more
bugs in it than you would except to find in a rain forest, not to mension
security holes, and other such things...I think Microsoft must put some of
these
bugs in there on purpose to make people upgrade.....I don't use Windows
out of choice, like most people I would rather use something else...I try
and
use Linus when I can

I think you might find that most of these are infact true, or maybe near
truth....though
you sound rather nieve to me...
