Wonder how they intend to find out what you use. Ah well, will just
tell them to bill me if they win the IBM suit, or be prepared to pay
interest on any monies they collect. This is all BS meant to try and
keep a dying company alive when all else has failed. They could not put
out a decent product (I know, I tried it), so now they're trying to sue
everyone in sight.
As our Appointed President says, "Bring 'em on!".
