[ubuntu-uk] Windows XP CD

[James - SJ Computers]

Hi All,

 

I'm pretty sure that Microsoft don't have issues with the duplication of
their disks. It's the licences that matter. After all, Microsoft even offer
an option to download the ISO direct from them:

8c50-fe22559d164e&displaylang=en

 

Just my two cents

 

Regards

Hi Guys

I would caution that just because Microsoft (or any other software supplier
for that matter) says that a particular action constitutes a copyright
infringement does not necessarily make it legally true. For the time being
at least, the law of the land ultimately overrides a EULA.
