You buy the rights to possess a copy of and use the software per the terms of the EULA, which will explicitly allow you to install it on one or more computers (which is technically copying), etc. (Some exceptions are recognized by statute and the courts.)Ģ. Copyright law secures virtually all rights to the software's copyright owner.

copyright law referring to whether a work is "active" or "in use." Such limitations, if they exist, arise from the license granted you by the copyright owners. I challenge you to find a provision in the U.S. Keep brooding, but work on your answers if you wish to chime in. Does it rain frosting sprinkles and $100 dollar bills there? Do you ride to work on a unicorn with a deathstar laser? I envy your obviously perfect working environment and in depth knowledge of legal matters. Really, take a bow and tell us how much better you obviously have it. I feel this overwhelming need to work with you now as you have shown what great character and positive attitude you hold towards the processes in place. Most places of this size compartmentalize these things into teams where you aren't allowed to reach across to get something done. I also work with an excellent crew and our location is afforded more of a laid back atmosphere and the opportunity to be hands on with all of the systems and all of the various IT functions. As for this company being "lame" I can assure you that I get better pay than most anyone else in my current position in my area. It also leaves the door wide open to being turned down and still being out the money due to this tech's mistake. Sterling - I have no idea what sort of environments you've worked in, but employee reimbursement for this sort of item would still take just as long though it would be in line with "seeking forgiveneess" rather than "asking for permission". But hey, thanks for the benefit of the doubt in the "if you in fact do buy triple digit quantities of machines every year." comment. This does not include machines purchased due to department expansion, "I want it", or any other reasons like "we should give bedrest mothers and terminal patients something to do while they lay around". This year's annual replacement list for my hospital includes 130 machines. There are 13 hospitals under our corporate umbrella. *stealth addition* We ordered over 200 machines last year for my Hospital alone. Now that we're done playing "who's got the bigger legal stick" I implore Ars once more for a copy of this generic image in the hopes there is another tech/admin/user out there with a copy of this disk due to similar circumstances. And no, we don't currently have any other users/departments with an X41 tablet that is running an OEM copy that I can get an image from.

This department did not purchase core CALs from us so we can't load up our key and use our corporate version that we have ghosts of. I am only requesting the OEM copy even though I have the corporate/retail version because there are separate blocks of keys that work with each version. I already have an OEM key which is not and will not be in use on any other machine which invalidates your argument.

Hiding behind the ambiguous "It's pirating and must be a no-no somewhere in the EULA" is akin to me telling you that having a Healthcare Employee's name on their ID badge is against HIPAA regulations.īy the way, the "copyrighted material" is not considered active or in use unless installed and fully functioning which it isn't unless 1) you have a valid license key that unlocks the software or 2) you circumvent the protections in place (i.e.

See, the OEM copy still requires the key be input manually to unlock the Windows XP Tablet edition that would be on it. So in short Yes, I've asked our reps and other business contacts and even the local IBM/Lenovo repair shop and none of them have a copy.Īs for the EULA, I'd really like to see the part in the EULA stating that it is illegal to pass the OEM image along when the image DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY LICENSED SOFTWARE. This machine was upgraded to a A/B/G internal card, but the OEM image was left intact as the unit was not going inside our network. They receive the machines with the OEM image directly from IBM/Lenovo and then either modify the hardware and pass them along and/or they drop our requested image on the machine which includes our core CALs. Our supplier, Insight, is skirting the issue and stating that they do not keep that sort of inventory on hand.
