As far as the EULA is concerned, how many people actually read it? It has been written by highly qualified lawyers to ensure that Microsoft is protected against the plethora of lawsuits than it has been subjected to. It has been written in the worst form of legalese and is to a large extent almost a foreign language to most users. Why should you even have to post a blog about the legal use of the software? Because no-one understands the EULA! Most users just click on the "Accept" button and carry on regardless. What Microsoft should do is to have a one page, easy to read explanation of the contents of the EULA.
