Hi Ronni, Yes I understand where you are coming from, & I did see the instructions on how to get a computer ready for sale.
I was just thinking that someone could take advantage of the installed software for as long as they were able to & if & when it no longer became viable then they hadn't lost anything because they hadn't payed for it & it wasn't theirs in the first place, I would just be loaning it to them while it's working, just as it was loaned to me, by the legal owner. If anyone who buys it feels the same way you do, then surely they are free to uninstall it.

If you are selling a machine to someone without the media to reinstall and properly own that app, what happens if they have a crash or need to reinstall the software? Do the right thing by making really sure the buyer understands exactly what they are getting. Software is protected by federal copyright law. The iMac should be completely erased and a clean installation of the OS (operating system). We have given instructions on WAMUG how to do get a computer ready for sale only a few days ago.
