AFUA visited Thendic-France : Comment 592 of 629 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Graham on 28-Apr-2002 22:43 GMT | In reply to Comment 587 (Kolbjørn Barmen): You said "The EULA for OS3.5+ AFAIK conflicts with Norwegian as it says AmigaOS can only legally
be run on compaters that were sold with AmigaOS on them originally. This exact part conflicts
with the law, which basicly says anyone can run whatever software they have bought on whatever
hardware they own. Amiga's lawyers should either have this fixed, but since they havent, the entire
EULA is not valid. I would love to see Amiga protect thrir non-valid EULA in court.
MicroSoft has done this a few times and never won. Companies cannot put whatever they like in
EULAs and claim that anyone who do not follow the EULA is breaking the law. "
In my own way to contribute to a possible 600 post thread on ANN, I would like to point out that if you do not agree to the EULA, then you don't run the software.
And if one term in an EULA is invalid, it doesn't invalidate the other terms.
