Pieper (sp?) has publicly stated that he doesn't care about software, and
he just wants to make money (the reference is about 45 posts back).  This 
makes him intrinsically untrustworthy.  Unfortunately, in the US we can't
take that into account: only evidence presented by either the prosecution
or the defense is admissible in court, and not all of that.
