                    lol - wow, just wow - so 38 licenses makes it Ok to install on thousands of computers, but you know.. 37, that wasn't enough - or well, even 1. LOL

                    As much as I'll hate our government having to pay out million/billions, there definitely should be a penalty.

                                The scariest part is the probable use of lawyers saying that being a criminal is genetic.

                                  Yup. The idea that you are guilty by being born rather than by your actions.

                                    Lol. I was going the other way, they couldn't be guilty, because they were born - that way.

                                          That'll save @jason's company a lot of money since all of their IT staff appear to be under $47K. Entry level IT managers everywhere are rejoicing in being able to avoid overtime.

                                            Who exactly does this qualify for?

                                            I thought there was a recent change in many businesses who were moving their IT staff out of salaried positions and into hourly because their IT jobs weren't really what qualified for salary-exempt anyway?
