Manny, I did think about my reply. You on the other hand apparently need
help in that area...

I double dare you to go purchase a piece of software and then try to return
it because it didn't live up to your expectations and/or you don't agree
with the EULA. Go ahead, waste your money if you like :-)

With a comment like this, "And BTW, our government is wonderful. Think
before you make sophmoric
remarks", you must be in the corporate world of selling petroleum?

And you would be wrong.

Certain vendors either care about thier customers or employ reasonable
copy protection technology and do allow you to return thier software. A
retail, like CompUSA will have a blanket policy against returning open
software, but will accept returns from vendors that provide this level of
service.

Two vendors who provide this level of service for retail products are
Microsoft and Symantec.

And BTW, our government is wonderful. Think before you make sophmoric
remarks.

You open a piece of software and then try to return today and I GUARANTEE
you that you will not be able to return it. They passed some form of
copy protection law to protect software vendors from being ripped off
because of copies that poeple make after opening the software, then
returning it. Our wonderful government passed this law for the software
companies to protect their properties.

So, this argument flies out the window(no pun intended)

The main difference if I bought anyone of those items, went to install
and
decided I did not like the EULA after opening the box I would have no
problem returning the item for a full refund with minimal
inconvinience.

And by contacting MS, with minimal inconvenience, you can return the
product that you no longer want.
