Precisely.

For example, I used my (developer) CD-ROM copy of MacOS 7.0 as a hub-shim on my
neighbor's son's tricycle, and he's now the Pride And Joy of the neighborhood
with his trike rainbow-glistening in the sun!  Who said CD-ROMs were good
"only" for music and/or computer data?  :-)

That copy was MINE to use how-so-ever I saw fit, and that tricycle was most
definitely not made by "Apple".  BTW, can that Cupertino company still use the
name "Apple" and/or did they buy-out The Beatles?  Not much word about the
lawsuit recently in the press.
