The delightful thing about discussions of the extent and effect of
piracy is that both sides of the argument have a very hard time
finding a shred of evidence, apart from the widely acknowledged
extent of piracy.

In my anecdotal opinion, the sequence of
events was quite clear: Mom and Dad decided it was time to
get a computer for the kids for Christmas, they bought two-three
packages to go along with it, and by New Year's Day the kids
are having copy-parties with their friends.
