    Why is it right that you should make money from selling software that you wrote, but you will not pay Microsoft for the software they wrote, that you used?? You are the lowest form of thief: one who cannot even see that he is stealing. I despise you. Go away. Name: Vladimir Dimitrov Georgiev Country: Bulgaria Phone: 03426878 City: Pazardjik Cell Phone: +35988563244 Address: 8, Vasil Levski street 7th ap. 4th floor E-Mail: vdg990@aubg.bg Perhaps foolish to admit piracy and make it so very easy to work out who you are. You score 0/10.

      Its on his website, which his profile links to. I make no apologies; he's a criminal. And yes I judge him, based on his own admissions, the laws of pretty much any country in the world, and my own personal set of morals.# What gives you the right to judge what I do? (this could get silly now).

That is where the land is worked with a horse and a plogh (No joke! My friend has been there recently). Probably the country which has suffered most from the decay of the Soviet Empire (along with Romania). The 200 US-Dollars for VC.NET-student might well be half a years work in that country.


        My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right.

          These people should be exposed, so it is right thing to do. If he does not have money for the compiler or does not want to pay for it, there is always GNU compiler and tools. This guy choose to stile the version.

A motivation other than being a bored middle class kid that simply 'crackz' for fun. And comparing Software-Godzilla Microsoft with an old granny is, well...way off ;)

                Jon, I am not buying a $500 IDE for building a $300 project... As you already know, I am a student yet. I have a whole bunch of academic work to do, plus this project that came up... There may be a while until I get another offer like this. That is why I am not willing to buy the VS software for this single (for now) program... As for sonfware piracy, I totally agree with you that everyone must pay for what she uses. But in a country like Bulgaria, where everybody uses illegal software, I will not be the only fool to use legal one...

                  If the project is only work $300, and you can't afford to buy VS, then why not use free tools, like all the GNU stuff?

                    Is there a GUI tool that will provide the functionality, language syntax of VC++ and appearance of a Windows GUI (and run under Windows)? "Needless redundancy is the hobgoblin of software engineering." - Peter Darnell

                        That is why I mentioned the student license. In the UK you used to be able to get a full version of Visual Studio 6 for about £70 ($100US ish) - I.e. a huge saving from what it normally costs Amazon doesn't seem to have student licence versions any more, but then they only seem to sell .NET stuff. I'm sure if you ask one of your teachers there should be someone who can tell you what a student licence copy would cost you -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!
