Very interesting statistics. In the late 80s I was convicted of selling stolen VAX boards (yep, I did it, and made good money doin it!)
My sentence: 180 months, and I served 100 months (thats eight (8) years for the calender-impaired.)
Not in a 'Club Fed' either, it was hard time in real Federal Prisons, part of it at USP Terre Haute (thats what you get for having a prior - for possession of pot!)
Needles to say, it was NOT worth eight years during what should have been my most productive.
BTW, had I been sentenced under the newer federal sentencing guidelines, I would have gotten LESS time than the warezdood. Go figure!!
