  The sad thing is that people are just content with these braindead greedy
limitations MS puts in their OS.
  Basically what they do is: Disable support for multiple processors and
sell it at the regular price. Sell the version without the disabled features
at a higher price.
  Of course this is marketing. However, it's sad that people are just content
with this.

  Compare it to Apple: *One* OS, with full features. No marketing tricks.
When you buy it, you get everything, not a crippled version.
