George claimed it, you couldn't deny it so tried to change the subject. I
objected to that, you resorted to a lie. Geo has since repeated his claim,
so there is no doubt about what he claims.

The Microsoft-written EULA for the version of Windows preloaded an the vast
majority of machines sold today explicitly ties the licence to the machine.
Sell or scrap the machine, the licence goes with it.

Why do you have to defend the indefensible, Rich? Even when I was working
for IBM while posting in CANOPUS, if I found some statement about IBM to be
indefensible I either kept quiet or simply acknowledged the facts.
