EULA's are usually very complex documents & can incorporate trademark law as I would think the Apple EULA's do.

Discussing the installation etc on any machine other than an Apple machine will violate the COC

+1 for that.

One of my absolute favorite movies.

The book was also amazing.

I was waiting for that, thank you! EULA is not law, and ironically, remember the commercial here? A mere 24 years later, don't you think this is exactly what they've turned into, such cranky whiners they and their minions are, but I won't get into an argument about how it is-or-isn't-hurting-people-and-jobs-and-this-is-what-is-destroying-society-and-a-bunch-of-unrelated-crap-that-comes-along-with-dissing-Apple-because-you-get-practically-jumped-by-its-fanboizz.

Kinda funny, when you think about it it all comes down to rights over a bunch of 1's and 0's.

I'm not going to read that whole article, so you might want to sum it up for everyone.

Until a high court rules otherwise, I certainly won't consider an EULA a legally binding agreement.

A contract that hasn't been presented to me before the purchase is nil. At least that's the view in Europe, and the lawyers would have bend it an awful lot to make EULAs legally binding.

Ever realized that when one asks what the legal department of any company (me and my friends/family have worked in, that is) thinks of EULAs, the only answer is "ignore that rubbish"?

That said, we still respect the CoC
