If you can afford the hardware, stop being a schmuck and pay for the software.
Sweetie.
I can afford the hardware because I don't pay for the software.
Do you have any idea where you are?
Why pay for something you don't need to?
Depending on the software, it could easily end up costing more than the hardware over a similar lifespan. Hardware is a tool, software is a method for using that tool.
There are pirates in these waters. I’d think twice before defending the merchant ships again.
