A Microsoft executive sent out a snotty email chastising anyone who has been encouraging people to purchase the Vista upgrade and install it without owning a valid Windows license.

Microsoft’s Eric Ligman points out, to those people who weren’t aware, that this is just as much a violation of the license as “borrowing” an install disk from a friend.
