If you're a company looking to sell your MS software, think again. You could still have to pay them even you've paid your dues and the ownership of the product now resides in someone else's hands. Bad business methods, in my opion.

And they wonder why people are always raggin' on them?

Remember Jason, as consumers we are stupid sheep who dont know what we want, nor do we care. Therefore M$ can exploit us to the fullest extent because we will like it. At least thats how they see it.
