Re:Ballmer: Piracy costs Microsoft 95% of potential Chinese ... by jellicle on Friday May 27, 2011 @09:25AM (#2591348)
Utter bullshit. Microsoft chooses to price Windows high in China, knowing that most people will therefore make a private copy, because Microsoft is afraid that if they price it low, it will undercut sales in western nations (people will import legitimate Chinese copies of Windows to the U.S.).

That's their business decision and a perfectly acceptable tradeoff. But you don't get to make that decision, profit from it, and also whine about it.
