Regarding the "implicit agreement about the usability of the software", I
seem to remember a clause that states something like: "user accepts all
risks as to fitness of use..." and: "producer grants no guarantee as to
merchantibility or fitness of use", etc. Basically, I understand this to
mean that you're on your own -- the producer (Microsoft) makes NO guarantee
that you can use the thing for ANY purpose. If they're nice, I guess
they'll refund your money if it doesn't work for you. BUT THEY DON'T OWE
YOU ANYTHING IF IT DOESN'T.


And I seriously doubt they are going to go after any one who uses a
crack to run the software. Nor do I see anything wrong with using a
crack so the user doesn't have to bother with inserting the CD
regardless of what the EUL says.

I do disagree with using the crack to allow someone to share. That is
different and a violation of copyright law. The first does not
violate copyright, and it is something that has been provided for in
"fair use" even though the DMCA says otherwise.

it's time someone with enough clout turned the DMCA into something
that treats users and supplies in an equally fair manner.
