  Microsoft gets serious about Windows piracy
Time: 07:10 EST/12:10 GMT | News Source: Neowin | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Windows users with the pirated software installed on their computer will soon notice a black desktop, along with a permanent notice in the bottom right of their screen, stating that they must purchase a legitimate copy of Windows. While Microsoft is trying to get their message across as best they can, the company is still kind enough to allow all applications to run normally.
