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?

there was one 10+ years ago
in short the ruling was that users buy software to use it, not to read eulas
beside this as good as all software is sold as shrinkware today, where you can only read the eula during installation
this alone is enough to make it unenforceable

Entschuldigung!
But there is no ruling in Austria, that EULAs are not enforceable at all in Austria.
Maybe some conditions would not hold, but some maybe would.
