Wrong list. I think you were looking for "Requests for Bootlegs of 
Copyrighted Software by First Time Posters."

For some silly reason, cisco thinks restricting the distribution of their 
software to current paid license holders will increase the number of units 
sold. You need to purchase a license or support contract or something 
before you can join the club.

Which is why my Ebay 7960 remains my only cisco purchase.

IMO, Polycom's got the right idea. If you want the latest and greatest 
software and support, break out your checkbook. If you're content to be a 
version behind and can take care of yourself, go for it.

(Is it ironic that somebody using Islam as part of their user name would 
be looking for "good men" to break the law for them?)
