    One day I'll wake up and realize that I've been fighting a battle that should have never been fought. After all, Microsoft is the reason I started using computers in the first place.

    Due to licensing agreement, once you have used product, you will be never be able to breath regular air again.

    hate to be a pedant, but you can't "breath" air at all, as breath is a noun, not a verb.
