Experts want PC users to get a license
----------
With computer viruses proliferating -- largely because people
don't know how to defend themselves -- a self-appointed
priesthood of codeheads wants to require computer users
to be licensed. (08/17/01)

The control freaks must have been woken up again. Just another method in which to extract lettuce from your pocket. First licensing, then taxes, then different kinds of additional taxes.

I hate controls as much as the rest of you.

The entrepreneur in me see this as a major lettuce farm.

And I'm really pre disposed to farming.

I just hope that my money comes back from Nigeria soon so I can get in on the ground floor for once.

I see retirement just around the corner,order the car!

Gee, and I thought we were already PAYING licensing fees - mostly to Redmond, Wa!
