I feel the same way about your house...

They own it.  They do have the right to control it.

If they sold it for say $100 a copy, ready to run, the dealers wouldn't
be paying, what is it, thousands? for their copies for very long.
They'd then have to sell enough copies cheap to make up the cost of
creating it.

Now, if one of us wise guys went and got a job and Lexmark, maybe we
could talk them into releasing the "consumer" version - one year/one
model at a time.  $50 a pop, updates... $10?  gotta have them or your
information starts to degrade.
