This would be a 'feature' of the software, that it was for Apple hardware only. That would then make it legal in the EU? What a giant waste of time for Apple to go through the process of implementing code that does this, when everyone knows the hackintosh community will crack it as fast as the DVD ripping community crack the protections on commercial DVDs. Really, is that the difference, because Apple don't physically write the code to prevent you from doing this you can't be expected to honour that part of the EULA that is actually in plain English - and by the way the Apple website has versions of it's EULA in 18 different languages and from the 3 I'm familiar with the bit about 'Apple hardware' is about as non-lawyer speak as it can get. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
