EULA - glad I chose Linux

I have just chanced on this comment on aspects of the ms eula for vista:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/10/29/microsoft_vista_eula_analysis/

and I am further reassured that I chose to start using linux a few
years ago. It did take a little effort to move into unfamilar
territory, but boy, it was worth it. I would be pretty nauseated to
have to rely on an eula like that.
