My nephew, a PC user with a degree in electrical engineering
specializing in computer engineering has paid very, very little for
software in recent years. He is well equipped with Photoshop, the
whole Adobe package, and bunches more software, almost all pirated,
that he has "borrowed" from various sources (probably not his company
since he doesn't work with computers at his job and hasn't been there
very long). I've warned him he's too young to get into legal trouble
if he's caught. He narrowly missed the MP3 download scandal at his
college by graduating in December just before the crackdowns; he was
one of the ringleaders.
