mga bro naa ko win98 pdala saHP nga pc nko sa una, karon ako gigamit sa new pc kay naguba namn ang hp....legal pa ba ghapon ni?

nope! illegal nana that win98 na bundled sa imo pc is called win98 OEM (am not sure about the proper term basta naa OEM) wherein ang license is for that particular pc only , one way of making it a one license one pcOriginally Posted by lipam

There's a way to do this to change your oem license stuff. I've heard it from a news story somewhere. It's because of second hand computers (surplus) shops. Microsoft offers some EULA change, because, actually sa mga surplus shops, you're not allowed to sell these computers with windows on it... because it's registered to someone else (like the original company it was bought from).
In my opinion, it's too much of a hassle (kinahanglan pa ka mo adto sa MS and do some negotiations, etc... blah blah). I'm hoping na people will shift from MS to linux. In fact in many countries and big businesses, they use linux and open source as a leverage to get HUGE discounts from Microsoft, even offer it for free in certain cases.
I'm sure because of this, Microsoft and other companies in the BSA (Adobe, Symantec, Autodesk) will be forced to rethink their strategies.
God bless!
mga bro and sis,
what if mapareha ka sikat and rich ang linux sa Windows. basin dili na niya sila free. hehehe. naa bai sort of agreement or law nga linux or unix will be forever free. say debian is free, so forever free na jud?
nigara ng microsoft kay most software houses develop apps for Windows only. Tan-awa ra gud ng mga games sa cafe, walay linux version. kung naa pa lang di ok kaau. d ta mag salig sa windows.
thanks.
Linux (open source one) is always and forever free to modify and download. GPL, the license which governs it, ensures it.Originally Posted by MelodyMan
I thinI think this can be contested in any rational court..... i bought the PC with the software.... I have rights to that software... I can upgrade the PC and used the software...Originally Posted by M@rv|n
It like buying a music cd.... I can play it in any player i want.... as long as I don't make copies of it....
that is also my basic understanding, even if it is a bundled software of my old pc, i believe still have the right to used it hence the older pc is gone......sayang kon dili nko gamiton....i paid for it....i have 8 of these coz my pc are all branded before....good kon makasabot unta cla ini nga sitwasyon......
