I often wonder if upon opening a box of freshly purchased Windows Software(at that store with the "Closeout - All Sales Final" sign) if I saw the thing warning me not to open the package of software if I don't agree with the licence...and I immediately called microsoft and said "I just read the little paper and I don't agree with the licence so I didn't open it...." what they would do (other than be surprized) think I might get money back..afterall I did buy it...
