They are going to examine their small customer license database — any discrepancies and it will call you for an audit. If you refuse it will send in the BSA and the legal heavies. "

    Here's a tip. "..." means there is more to the sentence. In this case, the more was "that sell software.." Apple don't sell software, they sell computers. Red Hat doesn't sell software, they sell support. The rest of the shit you mentioned, totally irrelevant cause you can't read.

    ---First, it isn't a made up story and second,

    What do we care. There's no proof but your say-so. And, you have no credibility (ESR, Linus, Stallman all have credibility to say what you said).

    ---my mothertongue is not English. How is your Dutch ? Your French ? Your German ? Thought so, knob...

    Well, you are on a predominantly english speaking board, so demeaning others who correct your bad english is quite stupid. If you cannot write the language intelligibly, how are we going to decipher your meaning? There's plenty of other posts to read.
