5 years? Most CEOs do not stay 5 years. So this won't be their problem. People want to make money now, not in 5 years. Shareholders want return now, not in 5 years.
First: The quality of counterfeit is not always as bad as people think. Or the quality of non-counterfeit is not as good as people think. Especially with clothing you can buy high-quality counterfeit.
Second: Selling out of a van not only means no rent, but most likely also no taxes anywhere. If stores and the people working in the stores and what not don't pay taxes anywhere along the supply chain, then you will be cheaper. For a store often not an option. This has nothing t do with counterfeit, but with taxes.
Third. You are right. Your are right. Most people will look at price. Just look how Walmart became so big.
To the GP: perhaps work more on the brand issue. Marketing. Perhaps the prodcut was just not different/nice enough.
Well, then please remove about 90% of users from the Internet.
Where I live most people let the ISP do the installation of their Wireless. I am sure that the majority has absolutely no clue as to how to do any configuration and that is why they let the ISP do the installation. I can understand that people expect the installer to make it secure (By asking you to type the password or any other means) and not the person who ordered the installation.
Perhaps because everything else would need more (read heavier) equipment and thus would be costing other stuff they want to bring up there. Just guessing.
Greg Kroah Hartman complained Ubuntu doesn't give patches upstream.

flashes official looking id printed up not long before
I had this happening to me and I asked for the ID to read a secondf time. Looked at it very carefully. So I would not fall for that. At a company I worked, police came and and where escorted back out when they di not show the correct paperwork.
Mind you, these were all official police officers.
The look on the faces of those officers was priceless: "But we are here to investigate " "Without the offcial papers you are two people tresspassing and breaking in under false pretenses. Leave now, come back with the papers and we will have all infiormation that you need available. Untill then please leave."
Iy also is better for them NOT to get the things that way, because if the judge would find out how they recieved it, it would be trown out as evidence and might even trow out the complete case.
Private information including passwords, e-mail and home addresses, phone numbers - plus pizza orders - has fallen into the hands of the anonymous cyber hackers.
Main think is the passwords. Ok, for the celeb also the phone number. The whole thing is that AGAIN they apparently had the passwords saved in plain text.
You could blame all the people who use the same passwords for many things and refuse to have a different password for each and every site they visit. I blame the people who have passwords in plain text saved. If that would not have happend, this would have been a non-issue story.
I think it is strange that we are now more worried about being sued then about the technical knowledge and the fact that if he can do it, everybody else can do it.
And this is a place where everbody says IANAL. This is a place about IT. And yet most people are more concerned about the law then about the technical side of it all.
What would be the value of that IBM XT if everybody has left theirs in the basement? What would be the value of that model T if everybody would have saved him.
Also you seem to focus on the part where he got his initial investment, not on the fact that his investments made him rich. He could have invested in the wrong things and ended up owing a lot of money and not owning it.
And the 150.000 for a model T? some prices so he was an extremely lucky guy who was good in seeing an opportunity both at buying and selling.
As others already mentioned, first see what the people who released the software react.
On how long you need to wait depends greatly on their response and the security risk involved. If you found it, someone else might have found it as well. If you find a security loophole in ssh, and people do not react, I would say a week after notifying the ssh people with a proof of concept and there was not response.
Importand security risks generally take 2-3 days. The reason for this is that way all distro's can get the patch out at the same moment, reducing the vurlnerability of all. If the makers answer, it will depend on how they react and again the security risk.
Encryption on a large scale will be forbidden, I am sure. The excuse will be terrorism and children. Together with the "If you have nothing to hide, show it."-excuse. Privacy? You don't need no stinkin' privacy.
The people controling Big Brother. Not only did they never party, they were never invited, because they were assholes and they hold a gruundge against everybody who thinks different.

That is if you are aware that what you but is a counterfeit. That is not always the case.

nowadays you need to pay them.
"Sure, we have order--but at what price?"

Canonical does not market Open Source, it markets Ubuntu.
I do nothing even if my phone is able to do so. It is an average, remember?

What time? 3 in the afternoon or the time of terrorism? If the latter, they have already won.

So it's like news?
What would be the value of that IBM XT if everybody has left theirs in the basement? What would be the value of that model T if everybody would have saved him.
Also you seem to focus on the part where he got his initial investment, not on the fact that his investments made him rich. He could have invested in the wrong things and ended up owing a lot of money and not owning it.

What is the cost if you have 1% of shortage on your capacity? I am sure it will be more then what you pay for over capacity.

Now I know where the music industry gets its ideas from.
Or we are the last and all the rest already left.
Encryption on a large scale will be forbidden, I am sure. The excuse will be terrorism and children. Together with the "If you have nothing to hide, show it."-excuse. Privacy? You don't need no stinkin' privacy.
If I don't have a religion, don't I have freedom?
Or the scientific ways of human reproduction and the scientific ways of avoiding said reproduction.
