cheated?! not again! check out the threads on the wonderful freedoms
of GPL/LGPL to allow vendors to charge...even for download links!

the customer can 'as a way of pretending to cheat' download far many
more extra copies off the openoffice.org site and distribute it to
more and more people.
in open source,
 "customers can tell if (and what?) vendors can sell"
and not
"customers can buy what vendors want them to try"

how was that? :D
