Or maybe if there is no such thing as retail software for you this is an open admission to ripping off all the developers out there by pirating software?
Well, as long as open source software does exist, I wonder wether retail software industry is really necessary and desirable.

Still no response to the major contribution that this individual makes to the world at large? Must be an extension of the French model for the EU: Leech like hell and moan when you are told to pay your way!
Well, I've earned quite a lot of money as software engineer in an investment bank and now I live on stock markets. But this is digression, personal life of people should not be used in a debate.
