    I was installing Quicktime and noticed something interesting
    when I read the License Agreement!


    You also agree that you will not use these products
    for any purposes prohibited by United States law,
    including, without limitation, the development, design,
    manufacture or production of nuclear, missiles,
    or chemical or biological weapons.


    Do you read the Agreement before you install software?

    I have no reason to read the Licenses, I am not in the States, that means no support, no laws, no nothing. Now, if I purchase a software
    for my office (not quite often) I do read it and respect the US laws.

    That is so close to true, that it is almost a fact!
    IS IT SUPPOSED TO SMOKE LIKE THAT?

    I sure hope North Korea didn't use QuickTime to develop their nuclear bomb. Then they would be in serious trouble!

    One time I was installing some software.

    When the "I agree to the terms..." page came up I simply
    checked "Yes" and then clicked "Next".

    The next page said something like "You couldn't have read all of that so quickly". :P :P

    How did they know?!!!

    A man walked into his son's room and said..."Son, that will cause blindness."
    The boy said, "Dad, I'm over here."
