This is in the UK a 'grey' area. Even if it was somehow a law (i won't get into licensing vrs criminal law) it would be very anti-competitive.
Someone, its only a matter of time will test this, and it will be intresting to see the outcome, and how it effects the anti-competative/meglomaniac nature of apple.
How can you call a company which accounts for a very small segment of the PC market megalomaniacal?
I also fail to see how it is anti-competitive. Microsoft opened up their licensing a long time ago, Apple didn't. I get the impression that you think it's only anti-competitive because they don't operate like Microsoft.
Apple don't make their money from software, they make it on hardware. If the EULA was tried in court and Apple couldn't defend not allowing other people the right to install the software on non-apple machines, they would be up the creek.
