According to this BBC page http://www.microsoft.com/uk/press/executives/
users in the Uk are going to be ripped off yet again by being charged
DOUBLE the prices charged in USA. Let's boycott Vista in the UK until
this rip-off culture stops.

Perhaps MS is keeping the excess in reserve to pay future EU fines.
Coping with bureaucratic idiocies is part of doing business in Europe.

Yeh, what a pain in the ass when a government tries to protect the consumer.
The same goes for protecting the environment. The damn governments should
keep their noses out of that and leave it to the benevolent corporations to
look after things.

Cheers.
