I do have to protest on behalf of more than just a dozen of emulator user who
are using perfectly legal copies and care more about copyrights than possibly
quite some users on real machines.

This I'm not saying because I just feel like it but because I *know* it.

I've never been a big fan of sweeping statements, and here you have the reason.
There is definitely abuse in the emulation world, but painting *every*
emulation user as a notorious pirate is a gross overstatement.
