What strikes me as funny is that every computer owner likes to point
fingers.  When you ask someone on the ST newsgroup about piracy, they say
that piracy on the ST is low compared to the other machines.  When you ask
someone on the Amiga newsgroup about piracy, they say that piracy on the
Amiga is low compared to the other machines.  And so on and so on.  If this
is the case, piracy isn't a problem at all, eh?

Why not be realistic and say that piracy is a problem equally on all
machines?
