A previous poster stated something along the line ...why worry about
copying of software?  Unfortunately, this is a concept held by many
users.  Academic instituions have obtained preferential pricing for 
a large selection of software based on the concept of education.  One
thing that we must do is to protect the intellectual property rights
of the owners of the software that we are using.  At least that our
view in my our shop.
