Thanks to Mark for this one:
SINGAPORE--Illegal copies of Microsoft Office XP have been selling like hot cakes in the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur for a mere RM10 (US$2.60).
The pirated software is readily available at night markets around the city as well as open-air food stalls and walkways in suburbs such as Petaling Jaya and Bangsar.
In an interview today, a Kuala Lumpur-based IT consultant, who requested anonymity, said that he paid RM10 for a single Office XP Professional CD, which comes with Word 2002, Excel 2002, PowerPoint 2002, Outlook 2002 and FrontPage 2002 for Web authoring.
