Microsoft threatens to cripple pirated Vista PCs (Download Squad)

Dec 13th 2006 10:22AM I think Microsoft should use strict methods only to block pirated copies of Vista Ultimate. Versions like home basic etc. should not be protected harshly. MS has ruled the OS market for over a decade and now its time for their downfall. I believe that Vista is gonna bring them down to the ground. Vista demands more powerful hardware. This means that the cost of any PC running vista will automatically go up. People will definitely think 20 times before they decide to go with Vista. Not to mention, Macs and Linux es are catching up. so i would be surprised if Vista makes good money for MS.
