You can't hold Microsoft accountable for your decision to steal from them.
Although I agree with you, you have to admit that steal from pirates is funny in itself (IE someone pirating Windows after Mr. Gates and Mr. Jobs had their little spat).
In the same respect though, saying that M$ charges way too much for software (true in my book) is the same as saying the Auto industry charges way too much for a car, let alone the pc industry charging way too much for a pc (also true in my book). I simply base all that on the profit margin they make from each.
