Re: Legality of selling restore disks?
I would say that as long as you are not copying them and selling them as for the empty case I would turn it into a MacQuarium.

Re: Legality of selling restore disks?
Shouldn't be a problem. It's like selling any other system disks, except these are for a specific model. Wish I was closer... I'd love to have one of those.

We are wondering how legal it is to sell the restore disks, since we're parting out the entire system now. Read the standard Apple license agreement. But this seems legal to me, since the computers to which they belong will not longer exist. One can assume that the software is not loaded on any other computer. Years ago, I bought two eMac Applications from a Mac parts dealer just to load two copies of AppleWorks 6.2.4 on newer Macs. I am still using those licenses as I have migrated to two Intel iMacs. Of course I removed AW from the older machines before letting them go.
