But you didn't buy it. You licensed it.

No, microsoft licensed it. He bought a license. If you're going to be pedantic without bringing any value, at least be correct.

You weren't being pedantic, you honestly thought that someone had the assumption that by paying $100, they owned the windows ip, and you were just helping them out?

Suuuuure.
