IIRC they had this very clause already in the MSDOS EULA. So the amount of $5.00 does not even change according to inflation ...

Monday, January 7. 2008Fun Extract from Microsoft Silverlight License Terms
If you bother to read the the MS Silverlight TOS you'll find this interesting bit which I found quite amusing:
"IMITATION ON AND EXCLUSION OF REMEDIES AND DAMAGES. You can recover from Microsoft and its suppliers only direct damages up to U.S. $5.00". Wow, how generous! This is then followed by: "It also applies even if Microsoft knew or should have known about the possibility of the damages." Its good to know MS legal machine is working well, best of luck up holding this in any "sane" court. Trackbacks
