A random question:

If a user (myself) purchased a MacPlus is 1987 which came with
System 5.0 and a friend of the user has a newer Mac with System 6.0.4
and the original user wants to use 6.0.4 is he legally allowed to
make himself a copy of 6.0.4 System disks or must he (re) purchase
the System software?

A second possible situation: user A has a hard disk with System 5.0 and 
user B has a set of 6.0 disks.  Can user A 'borrow' the disks to install
the newer System or must he (re) purchase that software to legally use it?

I looked at the Apple license agreement but I didn't see anything that
covered this (maybe I missed it, I wasn't extremely thurough).

email or post as you see fit...
