^^^^^^^^^^
Make sure it's publicised, Richard. Most people know nothing about it. They
don't even understand DRM, but you can explain that stuff in simple terms,
e.g. you music will only last for X years, your computer will refuse to work
just before and important deadline...
No publicity does its own legwork and to paraphrase PJ (and Grouchy's sig) with
a slant, some people **are** as stupid as Microsoft *needs* them to be.
