[mod.computers.vax] DEC licensing rules

SYSMGR%UK.AC.KCL.PH.IPG@AC.UK.UUCP (02/11/87)

The following, from DEC User, January 1986, seems both amusing and thought-
provoking (to say nothing of downright provocative if you are DEC!)
 
       " DEC's legal eagles must be putting in long hours over
         the licensing restrictions which stop you reselling licenses.
         Or do they? Why not set up a separate company to own the
         VAX, and sell it with the computer ... "
