The part of the EULA that pertains to the topic:
.By installing, copying, downloading, accessing or otherwise

.EULA. If you do not agree to the terms of this EULA, you may
.not use or copy the SOFTWARE, and you should promptly contact

.SOFTWARE PRODUCT LICENSE
.The term "COMPUTER" as used herein shall mean the HARDWARE, if
.the HARDWARE is a single computer system, or shall mean the
.computer system with which the HARDWARE operates, if the
.HARDWARE is a computer system component.
The installer agree to the EULA before you ever install the product
(by clicking on the I agree radio button) making it legal and binding
under the law you so love to quote. I don't have to argue any other
point with you because THAT is the one that matters.
Agree or disagree with this EULA it makes no difference. Telling me I
am wrong or Bruce or anybody else that argues the point with you
makes no difference. The fact that it is legal and binding, like it
or not, IS the entire point.
And since I know you would point out the ommision here's the entire
EULA:
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
IMPORTANT-READ CAREFULLY: This End-User
License Agreement ("EULA") is a legal agreement between you
(either an individual or a single legal entity) and the
manufacturer ("Manufacturer") of the computer system or
computer system component ("HARDWARE") with which you acquired
the Microsoft software product(s) identified on the
Certificate of Authenticity ("COA") affixed to the HARDWARE or
on the associated product documentation ("SOFTWARE"). The
SOFTWARE includes Microsoft computer software, and may include
associated media, printed materials, "online" or electronic
documentation, and Internet based services. Note, however,
that any software, documentation, or web services that are
included in the SOFTWARE, or accessible via the SOFTWARE, and
are accompanied by their own license agreements or terms of
use are governed by such agreements rather than this EULA.
The terms of a printed paper EULA, which may accompany the
SOFTWARE, supersede the terms of any on-screen EULA. This
EULA is valid and grants the end-user rights ONLY if the
SOFTWARE is genuine and a genuine Certificate of Authenticity
for the SOFTWARE is included. For more information on
identifying whether your software is genuine, please see
http://www.microsoft.com/piracy/howtotell.
By installing, copying, downloading, accessing or otherwise
using the SOFTWARE, you agree to be bound by the terms of this
EULA. If you do not agree to the terms of this EULA, you may
not use or copy the SOFTWARE, and you should promptly contact
Manufacturer for instructions on return of
the unused product(s) for a refund in accordance with
Manufacturer's return policies.
SOFTWARE PRODUCT LICENSE
The term "COMPUTER" as used herein shall mean the HARDWARE, if
the HARDWARE is a single computer system, or shall mean the
computer system with which the HARDWARE operates, if the
HARDWARE is a computer system component.
1. GRANT OF LICENSE. Manufacturer grants you the following
rights, provided you comply with all of the terms and
conditions of this EULA:
* Installation and Use. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this EULA, you may install, use, access, display
and run only one (1) copy of the SOFTWARE on the COMPUTER.
The SOFTWARE may not be used by more than one (1) processor
at any one time on the COMPUTER, unless a higher number is
indicated on the Certificate of Authenticity. You may permit
a maximum of five (5) ("Connection Maximum") computers or
other electronic devices (each a "Device") to connect to the
COMPUTER to utilize one or more of the following services of
the SOFTWARE: File services, Print services, Internet
Information services, and remote access (including connection
sharing and telephony services). The five (5) Connection
Maximum includes any indirect connections made through
"multiplexing" or other software or hardware which pools or
aggregates connections. Except as otherwise permitted herein,
you may not use the Device to use, access, display or run the
SOFTWARE, the SOFTWARE's User Interface or other executable
software residing on the COMPUTER. This ten connection
maximum does not apply to any other uses of the Product.
* Software as a Component of the Computer - Transfer. THIS
LICENSE MAY NOT BE SHARED, TRANSFERRED TO OR
USED CONCURRENTLY ON DIFFERENT COMPUTERS.
The SOFTWARE is licensed with the COMPUTER as a single
integrated product and may only be used with the COMPUTER. If
the SOFTWARE is not accompanied by HARDWARE, you may not use
the SOFTWARE. You may permanently transfer all of your rights
under this EULA only as part of a permanent sale or transfer
of the COMPUTER, provided you retain no copies, if you
transfer the SOFTWARE (including all component parts, the
media, any upgrades, this EULA and the Certificate of
Authenticity), and the recipient agrees to the terms of this
EULA. If the SOFTWARE is an upgrade, any transfer must also
include all prior versions of the SOFTWARE.
* Mandatory Activation. THIS SOFTWARE
CONTAINS TECHNOLOGICAL MEASURES THAT ARE
DESIGNED TO PREVENT UNLICENSED OR ILLEGAL USE
OF THE SOFTWARE. The license rights granted under this EULA
are limited to the first thirty (30) days after you first run
the SOFTWARE unless you supply information required to
activate your licensed copy in the manner described during the
setup sequence (unless Manufacturer has activated for you).
You can activate the SOFTWARE through the use of the Internet
or telephone; toll charges may apply. You may also need to
reactivate the SOFTWARE if you modify your HARDWARE or alter
the SOFTWARE. MS, Microsoft Corporation and its subsidiaries
will use those measures to confirm you have a legally licensed
copy of the SOFTWARE. If you are not using a licensed copy of
the SOFTWARE, you are not allowed to install the SOFTWARE or
future SOFTWARE updates. MS, Microsoft Corporation and its
subsidiaries will not collect any personally identifiable
information from your computer during this process.
* Digital Rights Management. Content providers are using the
digital rights management technology contained in this
Software ("DRM") to protect the integrity of their content
("Secure Content") so that their intellectual property,
including copyright, in such content is not misappropriated.
Portions of this Software and third party applications such as
media players use DRM to play Secure Content ("DRM Software").
If the DRM Software's security has been compromised, owners of
Secure Content ("Secure Content Owners") may request that
Microsoft Licensing, Inc. ("MS"), Microsoft Corporation or
their subsidiaries revoke the DRM Software's right to copy,
display and/or play Secure Content. Revocation does not alter
the DRM Software's ability to play unprotected content. A
list of revoked DRM Software is sent to your computer whenever
you download a license for Secure Content from the Internet.
You therefore agree that MS, Microsoft Corporation or their
subsidiaries may, in conjunction with such license, also
download revocation lists onto your computer on behalf of
Secure Content Owners. MS, Microsoft Corporation or their
subsidiaries will not retrieve any personally identifiable
information, or any other information, from your computer by
downloading such revocation lists. Secure Content Owners may
also require you to upgrade some of the DRM components in this
Software ("DRM Upgrades") before accessing their content.
When you attempt to play such content, Microsoft DRM Software
will notify you that a DRM Upgrade is required and then ask
for your consent before the DRM Upgrade is downloaded. Third
party DRM Software may do the same. If you decline the
upgrade, you will not be able to access content that requires
the DRM Upgrade; however, you will still be able to access
unprotected content and Secure Content that does not require
the upgrade.
* Back-up Copy. YOU MAY MAKE A SINGLE BACK-UP
COPY OF THE SOFTWARE. YOU MAY USE ONE
(1) BACK-UP COPY SOLELY FOR YOUR ARCHIVAL
PURPOSES AND TO REINSTALL THE SOFTWARE ON THE
COMPUTER. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN
THIS EULA OR BY LOCAL LAW, YOU MAY NOT
OTHERWISE MAKE COPIES OF THE SOFTWARE,
INCLUDING THE PRINTED MATERIALS ACCOMPANYING
THE SOFTWARE. YOU MAY NOT LOAN, RENT, LEASE,
LEND OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THE CD OR BACK-UP
COPY TO ANOTHER USER.
* Reservation of Rights. Manufacturer, MS and
its suppliers (including Microsoft Corporation) reserve all
rights not expressly granted to you in this EULA.
2. DESCRIPTION OF OTHER RIGHTS AND
LIMITATIONS.
* NetMeeting/Remote Assistance Features. The
SOFTWARE contains Remote Assistance, and
NetMeeting technologies that enable the Product or
applications installed on the COMPUTER (sometimes referred to
as a host device) to be accessed remotely from other Devices.
When you are using Remote Assistance or NetMeeting (or other
software which provides similar functionality for a similar
purpose) you may share your session with other users without
any limit on the number of Device connections and without
acquiring additional licenses for the SOFTWARE. For
Microsoft and non-Microsoft applications, you should consult
the license agreement accompanying the applicable product or
contact the applicable licensor to determine whether use of
the product with Remote Assistance, or NetMeeting is
permitted without an additional license. As used above,
a session means the experience delivered by the SOFTWARE
similar to when a user is using the input, output and
display peripherals attached to the COMPUTER.
* Consent to Use of Data. You agree that MS and Microsoft
Corporation and their affiliates may collect and use technical
information gathered in any manner as part of the product
support services provided to you, if any, related to the
SOFTWARE. MS, Microsoft Corporation and their affiliates may
use this information solely to improve their products or to
provide customized services or technologies to you. MS,
Microsoft Corporation and their affiliates may disclose this
information to others, but not in a form that personally
identifies you.
* Internet Gaming/Update Features. If you choose to utilize
the Internet gaming or update features within the SOFTWARE, it
is necessary to use certain COMPUTER system, hardware, and
software information to implement the features. By using
these features, you explicitly authorize MS, Microsoft
Corporation and/or their designated agent to use this
information solely to improve our products or to provide
customized services or technologies to you. MS or Microsoft
Corporation may disclose this information to others, but not
in a form that personally identifies you.
* Internet-Based Services Components. The SOFTWARE contains
components that enable and facilitate the use of
certain Internet-based services. You acknowledge and agree
that MS, Microsoft Corporation or their subsidiaries may
automatically check the version of the SOFTWARE and/or its
components that you are utilizing and may provide upgrades or
supplements to the SOFTWARE that may be automatically
downloaded to your COMPUTER.
* Language Version Selection. (i) Manufacturer may have
elected to provide you with a one-time selection of two or
more language versions of the SOFTWARE as part of the SOFTWARE
setup process. In such event, you are licensed to use only
one (1) of the language versions provided. Once you have used
a language version, you are not licensed to use any of the
other language versions that Manufacturer may have included
with the COMPUTER. (ii) Notwithstanding the preceding, if
Manufacturer has elected to provide you with a Multilingual
User Interface ("MUI") for certain language versions with
additional language version support of the SOFTWARE, the
preceding limitation to select and use only one language
version of the SOFTWARE shall not apply, so long as (A) you
acknowledge that the MUI, and the language support contained
therein, is a part of the SOFTWARE, (B) you only use the MUI
with the SOFTWARE, and (C) you comply with all of the other
terms and conditions of this EULA.
* Operating System Selection. Manufacturer may have elected
to provide you with a selection of Microsoft operating system
software for the COMPUTER. As part of the setup process for
the SOFTWARE you may be given a one-time option to select one
(1) Microsoft operating system. Upon selection, the one (1)
Microsoft operating system selected by you will be set up on
the COMPUTER, and the other Microsoft operating system (s) not
selected by you will be automatically and permanently deleted
from the hard disk of the COMPUTER and thereafter you are
licensed to use only the one (1) Microsoft operating system
selected. If the COMPUTER is accompanied by more than one (1)
COA for a Microsoft operating system, you are licensed to use
each Microsoft operating system(s) for which a COA is
provided.
* ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE/SERVICES. The terms of
this EULA apply to Microsoft updates, supplements, add-on
components, or Internet-based services components of the
SOFTWARE ("Supplemental Components") that Manufacturer, MS,
Microsoft Corporation or their subsidiaries may provide to you
or make available to you after the date you obtain your
initial copy of the SOFTWARE, unless other terms are provided
along with such Supplemental Components. If other terms are
not provided along with such Supplemental Components and the
Supplemental Components are provided to you by MS, Microsoft
Corporation or their subsidiaries then you will be licensed by
such entity under the same terms and conditions of this EULA,
except that (i) MS, Microsoft Corporation or their
subsidiaries providing the Supplemental Components will be the
licensor with respect to such Supplemental Components in lieu
of the "Manufacturer" for the purposes of the EULA, and (ii)
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, THE SUPPLEMENTAL COMPONENTS AND ANY (IF
ANY) SUPPORT SERVICES RELATED TO THE
SUPPLEMENTAL COMPONENTS ARE PROVIDED AS IS
AND WITH ALL FAULTS. ALL OTHER DISCLAIMERS,
LIMITATION OF DAMAGES, AND SPECIAL PROVISIONS
PROVIDED BELOW AND/OR OTHERWISE WITH THE
SOFTWARE SHALL APPLY TO SUCH
SUPPLEMENTAL COMPONENTS.
Manufacturer, MS, Microsoft Corporation and their
subsidiaries reserves the right to discontinue any
Microsoft Internet-based services provided to you or made
available to you through the use of the SOFTWARE.
This EULA does not grant you any rights to use the
Windows Media Format Software Development Kit ("WMFSDK")
components contained in the SOFTWARE to develop a software
application that uses Windows Media technology. If you wish
to use the WMFSDK to develop such an application, visit
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/imedia/windowsmedia
/sdk/wmsdk.asp, accept a separate license for the WMFSDK,
download the appropriate WMFSDK, and install it on your system.
* Limitations on Reverse Engineering, Decompilation and
Disassembly. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or
disassemble the SOFTWARE, except and only to the extent that
such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law
notwithstanding this limitation.
* Separation of Components. The SOFTWARE is licensed as a
single product. Its component parts may not be separated for
use on more than one COMPUTER.
* Single EULA. The package for the SOFTWARE may contain
multiple versions of this EULA, such as multiple translations
and/or multiple media versions (e.g., in the user
documentation and in the software). In this case, you are
only licensed to use the SOFTWARE for which a COA is provided.
* Termination. Without prejudice to any other rights,
Manufacturer or MS may cancel this EULA if you do not abide by
the terms and conditions contained herein. In such event, you
must destroy all copies of the SOFTWARE and all of its
component parts.
* Trademarks. This EULA does not grant you any rights in
connection with any trademarks or service marks of
Manufacturer, MS or its suppliers (including Microsoft Corporation).
3. UPGRADES. If the SOFTWARE is labeled as an upgrade, you
must be properly licensed to use a product identified by
MS or Microsoft Corporation as being eligible for the
upgrade in order to use the SOFTWARE ("Eligible Product").
For the purpose of upgrade(s) only, "HARDWARE" shall mean
the computer system or computer system component with
which you received the Eligible Product. SOFTWARE labeled
as an upgrade replaces and/or supplements (and may
disable, if upgrading a Microsoft software product) the
Eligible Product which came with the HARDWARE. After
upgrading, you may no longer use the SOFTWARE that formed
the basis for your upgrade eligibility (unless otherwise
provided). You may use the resulting upgraded product
only in accordance with the terms of this EULA and only
with the HARDWARE. If the SOFTWARE is an upgrade of a
component of a package of software programs that you
licensed as a single product, the SOFTWARE may be used and
transferred only as part of that single product package
and may not be separated for use on more than one computer.
4. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. All title

the respective content owner and may be protected by
applicable copyright or other intellectual property laws
and treaties. Use of any on-line services which may be
accessed through the SOFTWARE may be governed by the
respective terms of use relating to such services. If

only in electronic form, you may print one copy of such
electronic documentation. You may not copy the printed
materials accompanying the SOFTWARE.

not limited to implied warranties of merchantability and
fitness for a particular purpose, with regard to the SOFTWARE,
the accompanying written materials, and any accompanying

NO LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. To
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event
shall Manufacturer or its suppliers be liable for any damages
whatsoever (including without limitation, special, incidental,
consequential, or indirect damages for personal injury, loss
of business profits, business interruption, loss of business
information, or any other pecuniary loss) arising out of the
use of or inability to use this product, even if Manufacturer
has been advised of the possibility of such damages. In any
case, Manufacturer's and its suppliers' entire liability under
any provision of this agreement shall be limited to the amount
actually paid by you for the SOFTWARE and/or Microsoft
hardware. Because some states/jurisdictions do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or
incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.
