Przeróbka Longhorna 4074 - SigmaOS - legalna?

Właśnie. Czyli skoro dają narzędzia, pozwalają na edycję, czyli część z tych przeróbek (która nie ma na stałe umieszczonego kodu), jest legalna.

Wydaje mi się że co innego przeróbka na swój użytek, a co innego (tak jak w tym przypadku) umieszczenie przeróbki nawet “osieroconego” systemu w internecie do pobrania przez innych. To tym bardziej jest utożsamiane z piractwem.

Więc moim zdaniem -> przeróbki są dozwolone (bo MS dał narzędzia), ale tylko wtedy, kiedy mam na Windows licencję.

Teraz tak. Co jeśli na LH nie wydawana jest już licencja?

:shock: nie wydawana jest…

isnieje licencja do tego produktu i trzeba ją bezwzględnie przestrzegać,jest ona dożywotnia.

Ale chodzi mi o to, że nie można dostać nowej licencji. I co w takim przypadku zrobić?

trzeba rozróżniać dwie rzeczy umowa licencyjna to co innego niż licencja,

licencja na ten produkt zapewne przyznawana jest automatycznie po instalacji na 30dni i przedłużać ją można ileś tam razy.

Nie da się przedłużyć jej tym poleceniem. Nie da się też prod. bez kodu zainstalować.

jeśli jest to nielegalna wersja to dziwne żeby można było sobie zainstalować, jak szukasz klucza to szukaj go tam skąd pobrałeś ten system,

zakończmy tą dyskusje, system ten jest nielegalny i tyle, nic tego nie zmieni.

Niezdarek, zajrzyj posty wcześniej :wink:

Dzięki za odpowiedzi - rozumiem to tak, że SigmaOS jest przeróbką nielegalną oraz, że nie można zainstalować sobie Longhorna.

A co do uxtheme.dll - sprawa niewyjaśniona, jedni sądzą że może być, inni że to też przeróbki.

Dzięki jeszcze raz i pozdrawiam!

to dawaj zapis o ewaluacji 180 dniowej, doszukałem się EULA tegoż systemu( nie wiem czy autentyczne) i zapisu o tym nie widać… ani też nie doszukałem się sposobu aby przedłużać okres 30-dniowy, na dodatek MS oficjalnie wypowiadał się na temat Longhorna, nikt bez ich zgody nie może aktualnie korzystać z tejże edycji systemu Windows

jeszcze artykuł:

http://www.dobreprogramy.pl/Longhorn-Re … ,6164.html

:x

Inaczej podejdźmy do sprawy.

Longhorn Reloaded powstawał w czasach, kiedy Longhorn był jeszcze rozwijany. MS miał prawo się wtedy doczepić - w końcu planował na nim projekt (Vistę)

Ale kiedy w buildzie 5000 zaczął robić wszystko od nowa, sytuacja się zmieniła.

Microsoft przestaŁ wydawać kody, całkiem zarzucił system. Nie można go nigdzie kupić, w por. do np. Windowsa 95.

Skoro go nie można kupić… Czemu ludzie mieliby nie używać czegoś, co jest dobre a Microsoft zapomniał całkowicie o tym? Ta sama sytuacja tyczy się leakowanych buildów Nashville (Windows 96, tak, był taki :P) oraz Neptune (pierwotny następca NT5, poł. z Odyssey dał aktualny kształt XP).

Prosiliście mnie o licencję (oryginał z Longhorna 4015, nie był przerabiany):

MICROSOFT LICENSE AND NON-DISCLOSURE

AGREEMENT FOR PRE-RELEASE CODE for the

Microsoft Product code-named "Whistler" 


 1. GRANT OF LICENSE FOR DUAL DISTRIBUTION. 


    (a) Microsoft may provide the software accompanying this

    Agreement (the "Product") as a web-based download or on a

    CD-ROM. Microsoft grants Recipient a limited, non

    -exclusive, nontransferable, non-assignable, royalty-free

    license to install and use copies of the Product on up to

    one (1) computers residing on Recipient's premises,

    solely for Recipient's internal testing. The foregoing

    limit is aggregate and applies regardless of how many

    copies of the Product Recipient obtains from Microsoft. 

    If Recipient is downloading the Product from a Microsoft

    web site, Recipient may make one (1) additional copy of

    the Product onto a CD-ROM to exercise the rights granted

    above. All other rights are reserved to Microsoft. 

    Recipient shall not rent, lease, sell, sublicense,

    assign, or otherwise transfer the Product or any

    prohibits the foregoing restriction. Recipient may not

    use the Product in a live operating environment where it

    may be relied upon to perform in the same manner as a

    commercially released product or with data that has not

    Product for benchmark or performance testing. Microsoft

    and its suppliers shall retain title and all ownership

    rights to the Product, and this Agreement shall not be

    information therein, except as specifically stated

    herein.


    (b) Mandatory Activation. The license rights granted under

    this EULA may be limited to the first fourteen (14) days

    after Recipient first boots the Software Product unless

    Recipient activates Recipient's copy of the Software

    Product in the manner described during the setup sequence

    of the Software Product and, as a result of such

    activation, Recipient receives a final confirmation

    number for the Software Product. Any use of the Software

    DAYS. THE PRODUCT IS TIME SENSITIVE

    AND WILL NOT FUNCTION UPON EXPIRATION

    OF THE 180 DAY PERIOD. NOTICE OF

    Recipient will need to acquire a validly licensed copy of

    commercial release of the Product. Upon the termination

    of this Agreement, Recipient shall cease use of the

EULAID:WB2.3_PERPRO_STD_EN

Wielokrotnie się pojawia 180 days. Dziękuję, pozamiatane.

So:

* Microsoft dał narzędzia do edycji swoich produktów.

* Microsoft zarzucił swój projekt.

* Microsoft napisał, że można Longhorna używać przez 180 dni.

W połączeniu -> jest to legalne. Gdyby nie było legalne, Sigmę spotkałby taki sam los jak LH Reloaded (LHR).

A co do niego, właśnie. Część jego komponentów to były komponenty XP.

W sensie -> LHR używał instalatora XP, a Sigma (LH 4074), używa instalatora LH 4053 (brak buga dot. obsługi myszki). Być może tylko dlatego się Microsoft doczepił.

So, jest pozamiatane.

miałem sie więcej nie wypowiadać w tym temacie, ale podałeś treść licencji więc mogę się do niej odnieść,

po pierwsze wyraźnie napisane jest że system przeznaczony jest wyłącznie do wewnętrznych testów,

po 14 dniach od instalacji należy uzyskać numer potwierdzenia kopii, po uzyskaniu go bez aktywacji można dopiero wtedy kożystać z systemu przez 180dni, i wiele innych zapisów typowych dla wersji testowych systemów Windows.

a poza tym sama kradzież nazwy jest sprzeczna z prawem…

Nawet jeśli. 14 dni. Ale można używać.

// To nie jest kradzież nazwy :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

ale co z tego że 14 dni można jak samo wejście w posiadanie nośnika lub też obrazu płyty jest piractwem…

nazwa też jest objęta prawami autorskimi, jej zmiana w żadnym przypadku nie jest możliwa bez zgody autora

To może mi powiesz że jak mam obraz płyty np. Bety Windows 7 to też jest nielegalne?

jeśli posiadasz obraz płyty z build 7000 lub 7100 to masz legalnie system ale już inne nie… chyba że nabyłeś do tego prawa poprzez uczestnictwo zamkniętym programie beta testów, gdzie wybrane osoby są zapraszane przez MS.

Posiadanie tych buildów do czasu wygaśnięcia czy można trzymać, ile się chce?

Pozdrawiam!

Zainstalowane na komputerze mogą być do czasu wygaśnięcia (zresztą po tym czasie pewnie i tak się nie uruchomią). Na półce, na dowolnym nośniku możesz trzymać jako pamiątkę dla potomnych przez całe wieki 8)

Więc, Longhorn (np. 4074) jest już podpisany jako wczesna Beta 1. Tak samo jak 7000. I tu kolejne wskazanie na jego legalność.
