[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1366517, member: 38928"] I guess it's down to interpretation. Like dtravis7 says, better safe than sorry. But I can't help think from reading the excerpts and the surrounding EULA text that it's all to prevent illegal distribution of the software. I.e. the recipient not having paid for a licence. But that's not the case here. The Mac will have come with a genuine licence. In this instance each Mac has it's own, genuine licence and the loaned disc will simply be used to re-install the software that was duly licenced for use on the Mac. It comes down to intent. But then copyright law was and is a minefield. I'd suggest getting in touch with Apple and paying a small fee to have the media replaced. [/QUOTE]
