I somehow thought those 'REALLY CHEAP' rental houses were, in fact, supporting
piracy.  They would buy one copy of each program, rent it to you, at which
time you would obviously copy it, photo parts of the manuals, and send it back.
Now really, tell me who is going to mail back a $600 program, never to use it
or see it again, without stealing just one back up copy for himself.  The
rental house was totally blameless, 'I MEAN WE!!! DONT ENCOURAGE PIRACY!!!'
(Of course, I could be wrong, and this is not what the whole point was)
 My apologies if I have impuned the character of anyone truly without sin.
