Verily I say unto thee, that Linonut spake thusly:
> Microsoft realized that it was powerless to stop widespread piracy in
> China, so it simply threw up the white flag. If Chinese users are
> going to pirate software, Microsoft wants them to pirate Microsoft
> software. Plus, Microsoft has made it easy for Chinese users to
> purchase legal copies by offering a $3 Windows/Office bundle to
> Chinese students.
