Buyers of pirated W2K get what they pay for

 Many purchasers of illicit software are becoming disappointed when they 
realize that the
 pirated copies of Windows 2000 they are buying are priced at what the 
software is worth. "I
 paid my buddy $1.50 for a Windows 2000 CD he picked up in Russia," said 
one annoyed
 buyer. "Little did I know that the thing was only worth $1.50."
