Saludos a los estudiantes de Stanford.  It is good to see that there are
still people in this country who will not only abide by an honor code
but speak up for one also.  But this issue goes further than being able
to resell something that you own.  We all enjoy that freedom, and it is
one of the reasons that we live in this great country.  Computer
companies are doing us students a great service by giving us these
discount prices, but how long will they continue to do that, if their
regular computer sales are being hurt by the folks who take advantage of
their special pricing?  If the computer companies see this and stop
furnishing special deals for students, we students will be the ones who
will suffer.  Let's preserve our ability to get educational discounts and
just play the game by the rules.

		Gracias por escuchar.
