PS1 B744 sim wanted
Looking to get a hold of the Aerowinx Precision Simulator program, but don't want to shell out the 170quid for it! Anyone have a copy they are looking to sell?
pm me if so...

I am sure that anyone ready to 'sell' this to you will already know that they are breaking the laws of Copyright and Gee, why am I bothering to say this? I must be getting old.
It's not a violation of copyright to resell -- making unauthorised copies is.
And the product is next to useless without the manual, especially as updates and supplemental web materials commonly use passwords from various pages of the manual.

Even that is not necessarily so, often when you purchase software you are only purcasing a licence to use that software and if you study the small print carefully you may find you are not permitted to resell that licence. In that case you are not the owner of the actual sofrtware.
A pedantic point maybe but it is a boring sunday!

But these are special cases, where you will have signed a contract before even getting your hands on the software. In the normal case, you can go to any electronics store and purchase a software package or game over the counter and you can sell it to anyone you please. The software manufacturer can put anything they want into their EULA - it doesn't make it legal or legally binding. An EULA can only become binding if you open and use the software, and even then certain parts of an EULA may not apply to you, depending on where you live or may be invalid altogether, because they are contradictory to the law (not uncommon).

bumboclot,
Maybe have a look at PMDG's 747-400 sim they should be releasing soon. Their 737NG package is very good.

I was rather assuming the originator of this post was asking someone to sell him second hand software, ie one where the packaged had been opened and the EULA was now in force......
Obviously the chances of a sofware company persuing an individual through the courts is remote, but despite the above claims, EULAs are enforceable.
