The law as written would seem to make microsoft windows nt/2k/xp/etc
illegal to possess. Perhaps someone can print up a bunch of stickers
"Under 750.540c enacted 03/31/2003 it is a felony to possess this
software/device" and put them on microsoft windows boxes and hardware
routers wherever they appear.
Wonder how long it will take for someone to discover michigan government
officers committing 1000's of felonies...
