Just pirate some of the things?
you know, I (supposedly - you cant prove anything, mr. prosecutor) may have done this as a kid. then I hopped hardcore on to the FLOSS bandwagon and never looked back. everything I need I can find as a FLOSS package (firmware often excluded, of course). all the learning that I (supposedly) did through the "hack" as a kid now goes into writing original code and supporting open source software. FLOSS literally (may have) made an honest man out of me :-)
