How about we sue them? How can a vendor dictate what platform they allow their software to run on? Just because they designed it for some other OS doesn't mean, if I can figure out a way to make it work, that they can tell me I can't run it on that platform. I'm not a lawyer either, but frankly I think their EULA is unenforceable and their attitude ought to cost them customers. -- Paul Schmehl (pauls@utdallas.edu) Adjunct Information Security Officer The
