Snow Leopard T&Cs interestingly odd
Maybe not odd but interesting, have you ever read the terms and conditions of apple’s software? Here’s the section I found very interesting and hilarious, Section H. FAA Notice, you know you think your OS is awesome when you need to put an FAA notice in it….
H. FAA Notice. Aircraft Situation Display and National Airspace System Status Information data (collectively “Flight Data”) displayed through the Apple Software is generated by the Federal Aviation Administration. You agree not to redistribute Flight Data without the prior written consent of the FAA. The FAA and Apple disclaim all warranties, expressed or implied (including the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose), regarding the use and accuracy of the Flight Data. You agree that the FAA and Apple shall not be liable, either collectively or individually, for any loss, damage, claim, liability, expense, or penalty, or for any indirect, special, secondary, incidental, or consequential damages deriving from the use of the Flight Data. The Apple Software is not sponsored or endorsed by the FAA. The FAA is not responsible for technical or system problems, and you should not contact the FAA regarding such problems or regarding operational traffic flow issues.
This is so interesting that the Mac OS has an FAA notice… sing it… ‘ I believe I can fly…’
And then a classic warning in all Operating System license agreements with users…highlighted in red.. That is by far the best line ever… just in case you get confused don’t call the FAA….Yeah, I’m calling…
I can almost here it now…
“…Hello, thank you for call the Federal Aviation Administration…”
“…Press 1 for Air Traffic Control, Press 2 for Snow Leopard Support…”
“…If your plane is crashing press 1, If your system is crashing press 2…”
