Have you ever bought MS software? I'm not talking about the copy of microsoft works you got with your new PC.

I can honestly say I (or my parents) have never bought MS software.  Other than recovery discs that come with a new computer.

Amazingly enough, never. Actually, I bought Dungeon Siege. That would be it.

I burnt it from a friend, it wasnt worth the price of 10 cents i paid for the 2 blank CDs.  Laggy as hell and a horrible example of a RPG.

I could never get into it.  Any Final Fantasy blows it out of the water hands down.  Morrowind also kicks its ass, althought that gets fairly boring after a while.

It was a bit laggy, but looked good considering the age of my PC. The siegelets and mods add a bit of fun to it. Lighsabers and what not.    

Can't stand turn based fighting. FF is perdy though.

I'd like to point out that if you've ever bought a computer with Windows preloaded on it then you are definitely paying Microsoft.

If you put it that way, then yes. Just about every person in these forums has bought Microsoft products willingly or not. I thought that the guy who posted this topic, was talking about extra M$ software.
