They don’t obtain it illegally they get it straight from Apple because one of Apple’s core applications is made by Microsoft Office.

But come on, they can’t seriously believe that distributing Tiger via a torrent is going to allow other companies (Microsoft) to discover their secrets.” They sued because they are fed up with developers that continue to break their NDA (non-disclosure agreement). Yes, I agree that they did in fact sue a registered developer that created a torrent of build 8A393, but not because he allowed a large number of people to obtain the OS. “Apple isn’t out there hunting down torrents of Tiger for the simple reason that they just don’t really care.
