Sport, sport.

Last I checked, sport, that is an English word that is used in all English
speaking countries. When I was a child, my father named our dog "sport".

To which "Australian" word are you referring, sport?

Hoy, sport yourself. Don't use Australian words if you aren't.

I have a degree in English from the University of Texas Arlington and my
comprehension skills are fine.


You learned English in The Republic of Texas? No wonder you have a
problem!

If you install software without reading through the EULA then the
problem
is not comprehension, but reading at all.


Huh? I didn't say anything about reading or clicking through the scammy
EULA, now did I, sport? Please try to respond to content, not what you
think
I typed. Can you do it?

Let me see if I can make it clearer. Go to the web sites of Walmart, Best
Buy, Longhorn Ass Kicking Trailer Park Computers, Sears, whatever, and
try
and find a place to click on to buy a licence. You will ONLY find a place
to
click on called "software". For some reason, when people click on that
and
add XP Home to their shopping cart, they think they are buying SOFTWARE.
Do
you understand me now or do you need me to go a little slower?

If you can read the website, you can read the EULA. If you just click
through it during an install, that's your issue.

Huh? I didn't say anything about reading or clicking through the scammy
EULA, now did I, sport? Do you have a reading comprehension problem? Is
English not your first language? The web sites I was referring to and I
made it clear by typing *computer web sites" say *software*, not
"licences". Yaknow, the ones that sell Microsoft *Software*?

You were sold the licenses, not the software.

We know about the licencing scam. It's a scam. It's highway robbery.
EVERY computer web site says "software", not "licences".
