That's a shame too, because nobody gets rich from working 40/50/60 hour work weeks. It's just enough to pay taxes, take those 10 vacation days, eat fast food, and die.

Oh no, I didn't pay $5. The was the initial pre-haggle 'fahrang' price was 200 baht (slightly more than $5), but I wasn't even interested. I got all the software I need, and besides that would be against the law;)

This is true. It also makes a noticable difference when connecting via VNC.
FTA: A shopkeeper interviewed by the Associated Press news agency said he was not interested in the worth of the information on the memory drives.
I guess those copies of Mambo_No_5.mp3 arent so popular at the bazaar?
