PRESS INFO: XP INSTEAD OF VISTA
The whole industry is disappointed of Windows Vista?, complains Gianfranco Lanci, President of Acer, towards Financial Times Deutschland. It never happened before that a new version of Windows has stimulated the sales of computers to such a low extent. I really believe that there will hardly by any person buying a new pc because of Vista.? In particular, there would be many business customers asking them to install the old system software Windows XP. However, this old system software is no longer offered by Microsoft itself. Therefore, companies being in need of new software are confronted with a real dilemma. A solution may be found on the used software market. The company usedSoft has permanently ten thousands of -XP Professional-licences in stocks and it sells them with a price benefit of up to 50 percent compared with the new price.

PRESS INFO: MICROSOFT IS AGAIN DEFEATED BY USEDSOFT
Microsoft's attempt to criminalize the trade with "used" software has failed again. The Munich Chief Department of Public Prosecution dismissed a complaint against the dismissal of the criminal proceedings against usedSoft without any restrictions which had been lodged by the software monopolist. Thus, Microsoft's repeatadly uttered reproach that the trade with used software through the company usedSoft would be the same as dissemination of pirate copies has now been finally disproven. After such dismissal of Microsoft's complaint, Microsoft obviously admitted its defeat as it waived its right to any further appeal. The dismissal of the criminal proceedings has therefore become final and absolute.
