This is a standard part of the Apple Software Licensing agreement - it
basically says that Byte Works licensed the software for use with ORCA, and
your purchase of ORCA doesn't give you free reign to do with the Apple
software as you please.  Of course, this isn't an official interpretation,
but it's part of all Apple Software Licensing agreements that I've ever
seen.

(Those people who would like to ship ProDOS or GS/OS with their own software
need to contact Apple's Software Licensing dept. at (408) 974-4667.)
