As far as any EULA, they are like the fine print on insurance polices.
NOBODY reads them or for that matter could understand half the double

"Nobody?" What planet do you live on? I read every contract I'm asked
to sign. I seek legal advice for any portions I don't understand. Don't
you? Are you saying that the *everyone* is too stupid or too lazy to
look out for their own interests? And I though I had a dim view of the
general public.

Regardless, the signer's not having bothered to read a contract doesn't
make that contract any less binding.

Oh, and the Windows EULA is written at what I'd consider an 8th grade
(A 1960's era American public school 8th grade, that is; probably closer
to today's high school level, now. Nevertheless the average McDonalds
burger-flipper should have no trouble with it.) reading level. It's not
at all confusing to the functionally literate.
