I find this unconscionable. I contest this based on the fact that I
purchased a copy of the software which is mine. M$ owns the code, and I
may not reverse engineer it, but I should dang well be able to use my
copy of the software as I please in the privacy of my own home for
non-commercial purposes. It's called fair use rights.

I like to compare owning a copy of Windows with owning a book. Both are
intellectual properties. It's illegal for me to make copies of either one and
sell them. The only difference is I don't have to buy multiple copies of the
same book for each room in my house.
