Alias is concerned about people using illegally acquired software and
offered the OP's "friend" the ability to run an alternative operating
system that doesn't infringe on any EULA. That is the honest thing to do
with guys like that who are into pirating commercial software and can't or
won't purchase that software.
It's really only in the Windoze world where one finds pirates. In the Open
Source world, there is no need to pirate software.
Cheers.
