Law and Order Earlier today we reported that while Apple doesn't encourage it, the Snow Leopard upgrade disk can be used to upgrade machines that have Mac OS 10.4 Tiger installed as well. However, this is actually forbidden by the accompanying EULA, which raises an interesting question: do you have any moral problems ignoring said EULA? And on a more general note, do you actually care about any EULA at all?

I tend to completely ignore Apple's EULA's. It too often appears Apple simply wants to screw over customers, open standards and good conduct as much and as hard as possible. The most recent example being the very shady App Store policy, but there are MANY MANY more skeletons in Apple's closet I'm sure. So no, I have absolutely no moral objection at all to ignore any EULA Apple throws at me.

I do like their products, though. I just strongly dislike Apple as a company.
