| Dec 15, 2011 at 20:49 | comment | added | slhck | @DanielBeck If the question is just about whether something is allowed, I don't consider it a real question in the sense of Super User. We're not here to interpret EULA. There should be a problem to be solved. The question should be How do I …, don't you think? For example, Windows licensing really matters when you're getting an activation prompt, so it would be fine to ask about what the practical consequences would be. | |

What is your opinion on software licensing issues, e.g. Allowed to run on virtual machine (not counting OSX here due to our need to keep out illegal stuff)? It's similarly only marginally relevant to actual software use. | |
