Yeah they wont care about $50. But the thing is, if everyone said that, M$ would end up losing hundreds of thousands of dollers. Now they WOULD care about that. You cant argue there.

I completely agree that laws aren't in place to be broken, and that no, ONE copy of a game won't make much difference...but ask yourself this.  Do you want to be the one who's fifty bucks made FS not profitable for MS?
Great edit, Bob.

Well I have two computers.
One FS 2004 program.
One installed on the fast computer I built (the other was so jumpy playing the 2002 version, I knew it would never play the 2004 version)
And way to many aircraft !

Never even thought of installing it on the other computer. Nobody else in my family likes to play it...

But my son does have a few games he has installed on both computers. Mainly so that if he wants to play his game he can do it at the lower graphics/speed on the other computer. And when he can play on mine, at the higher graphic settings...
They are the ones that you have to pay monthly ( SUCKS !) to play on line...

I can't see the issue on installing it on another computer in you're on household if you're going to use it. It's a bit like playing  console game, you're gunna take it round your mates and play multiplayer with them? is that against the law, anyway I'm drifting off the subject. Why don't you just ask microsoft?

Ben,

It would have been easier for you just to have done it and kept quiet about it ;D

Laws are there for a reason chaps, to protect people (and corporations). So nope!
And we at SimV don't support any law breaking (that said the local feds still haven't nabbed me on my mates GSX-R750) ;D

Ps. I'm locking this thread before any trouble occurs ;)
