This is fantastic! Here on Brazil the use of pirate software is so common that no ones care about it, and the teachers itself provides those pirate copies to the students.
We who fights against this always hear things like: "Why will I use PSPP if SPSS has a lot more features and I don't pay nothing to use it?"
Its great to hear that on other parts of the world the free software have so much power!
