Where you got the idea that a motherboard can run software (or that it
contains storage or can host an OS) is beyond me. I seriously thought
you knew better, considering what you do for a living.


Which is the reason I clarified my statement of Motherboard to
"Motherboard assembly", making my exact statement correct.

Nope, still not correct, especially after you provided your personal
definition of a motherboard assembly. If you'd like to further clarify
what you think a motherboard assembly is, this is your time. Until
then, you were and are wrong.

And just what do you think the software runs on?

If you don't know anything about computers you have no business trying
to steer this thread.

Why are you not answering the simple question?

Give it up, Mark. Go troll somewhere else. Several of us have already
educated you, or attempted to, so the rest is up to you. I've
repeatedly answered your silly question, but you cling to your magical
motherboard that runs Windows without a CPU, without RAM, without any
kind of storage at all. Congratulations on having a one of a kind.

I asked you what runs the software - I've clearly stated the motherboard
assembly that includes the CPU and RAM would be in that assembly.

So, again, you've been misleading, you've not answered the simple
question and you've resorted to the same level as Alias

Shades of the old roadrunner group from 10-11 years ago. You haven't
changed. Proven wrong, you frantically grab at straws. Boring.

Still waiting for you to define, in the context of the EULA, what the
software runs on - you're starting to repeat your denial.

If you're basing your ridiculous position on something you think you
read from Microsoft, my advice would be to step away from the computer
or close the book. You're in way over your head.

Please enlighten us, wise one, how you were able to coax a motherboard
to run software. I'm always curious when the impossible suddenly
becomes possible.


Load it, remove drives, no case, keyboard, mouse, video needed. Just
what is on the motherboard and power. Since we know that the PSU isn't
the "Computer" and since we know that the PSU can't run the software....

I get the feeling that you don't know the difference between a
computer and a motherboard.

I have actually designed motherboards as well as cards and peripherals
for computers - so why are you running away from the question?

Sorry, Mark, I don't believe that for a second. The ignorance you've
shown in this thread clearly says it isn't so. Of course, this being
Usenet and all, you're free to say whatever you want. You don't have
anyone fooled, though.

And you continue to show your ignorance and willingness to misdirect.

What runs the software? You already, in another reply, said the computer
was inside the square box - so, what runs the software and try and
answer in the context of the EULA.

As I've told you several times, what "runs the software" is a
motherboard, a CPU, some RAM, some storage, one or more input devices,
one or more output devices, a power supply, etc. I'm not sure why you
need me to keep repeating this to you.

You are factually and technical incorrect - the software does not RUN
with the INPUT DEVICES, OUTPUT DEVICES, POWER SUPPLY.

Tell us - what software runs on the Power Supply, the Hard Drive, the
Mouse, The Keyboard, that would be covered under the MS EULA, the
community awaits your next misdirection.

You're not even pretending to stay on topic anymore. Start a new
thread if you have additional questions.

The topic is the EULA as it relates to OEM licensing.

Still waiting for you to define, in the context of the EULA, what the
software runs on - you're starting to repeat your denial.

Covered in another post just now. Look for it.


No, you did not, you stated what was needed to have a functional
computer, listing all the components, but you did not address the part
that runs the software.

So, again, what part/component RUNS THE SOFTWARE?

I tried being technical and it went over your head, so I'll try it
another way. The part that runs the software is that squarish box that
the various cables connect to. No, not the box with the TV screen, the
other box. Is that dumbed down enough, or have I gone too far?

So, if you remove the squarish box, how is it that the software still
runs on the motherboard assembly?

There's a computer in that squarish box.

You're starting to get the idea - the box isn't the computer.

You thought the only thing inside the case was a "motherboard
assembly??? OMG, tell me you're kidding.

Now I know you're trolling - only a totally ignorant ass would even
remotely suggest something like that.

How come you can't come up with even a single link to a motherboard
that can run Windows software? Why do you dodge that simple request?

Why are you still unable to show what RUNS THE SOFTWARE in the context
of the EULA - we've already seen that the Case doesn't run the software,
the Fans don't run the software, the hard drives run the software, the
PSU doesn't run the software, the Mouse/keyboard doesn't run the
software....

Please tell us, in the context of the EULA, what runs the Software?

Why do you run away from a simple question and hide behind more
questions that have already been asked and answered? Show me your
magical motherboard that can run Windows. You're totally predictable,
Mark. Put up or shut up.

Still waiting, since this discussion is about the EULA and OEM
licensing, for you to define, in the context of the EULA, what the
software runs on - you're starting to repeat your denial.

Define "runs". I define it by being able to USE Windows. I can't use
Windows without a whole lot of components besides the motherboard. Part
of Windows 7 is AERO. You can't *run* that without a decent video card
and gobs of memory. Now, man up and admit you're a nitpicker and that

Tell us - what software runs on the Power Supply, the Hard Drive, the
Mouse, The Keyboard, that would be covered under the MS EULA, the
community awaits your next misdirection.

The EULA says computer. The even have a hash to make sure the computer
doesn't change and the MB is only one of the hash components.

Be a man and admit you're wrong. Course,I've *never* seen you admit
you're wrong: your fragile ego won't let you.

Still waiting for you to define, in the context of the EULA, what the
software runs on - you're starting to repeat your denial.


Can't read? Again, sigh, the EULA says "computer". It doesn't say
"motherboard" or "motherboard assembly (your back pedal)".

It clearly states "RUNS THE SOFTWARE", so, show us, for once, that you
actually know what RUNS THE SOFTWARE.


I have already explained that various times. You're just too ****ing
dense and ego bound to get it.

No, you've always blathered about the COMPUTER, failing to state what
runs the Software.

Where you got the idea that a motherboard can run software (or that it
contains storage or can host an OS) is beyond me. I seriously thought
you knew better, considering what you do for a living.


Which is the reason I clarified my statement of Motherboard to
"Motherboard assembly", making my exact statement correct.

Nope, still not correct, especially after you provided your personal
definition of a motherboard assembly. If you'd like to further clarify
what you think a motherboard assembly is, this is your time. Until
then, you were and are wrong.

And just what do you think the software runs on?

If you don't know anything about computers you have no business trying
to steer this thread.

Why are you not answering the simple question?

Give it up, Mark. Go troll somewhere else. Several of us have already
educated you, or attempted to, so the rest is up to you. I've
repeatedly answered your silly question, but you cling to your magical
motherboard that runs Windows without a CPU, without RAM, without any
kind of storage at all. Congratulations on having a one of a kind.

I asked you what runs the software - I've clearly stated the motherboard
assembly that includes the CPU and RAM would be in that assembly.

So, again, you've been misleading, you've not answered the simple
question and you've resorted to the same level as Alias

Shades of the old roadrunner group from 10-11 years ago. You haven't
changed. Proven wrong, you frantically grab at straws. Boring.

Still waiting for you to define, in the context of the EULA, what the
software runs on - you're starting to repeat your denial.


It runs on a computer which is not defined on purpose in order to allow
upgrading hardware.

The definition is that which RUNS THE SOFTWARE - so, what is that?


Define "runs". I define it by being able to USE Windows. I can't use
Windows without a whole lot of components besides the motherboard. Part
of Windows 7 is AERO. You can't *run* that without a decent video card
and gobs of memory. Now, man up and admit you're a nitpicker and that
you're WRONG.

The good news is that it's NOT YOU that defines anything nor does your
OPINION count - technically, you don't have to have a video card for
Windows to run. So, again, admit it, you will use vague terms to allow
yourself to violate the EULA as you want.

You've got your subthreads confused. Your EULA discussion doesn't
involve me. I've never referred to a EULA in this discussion and don't
plan to, so you'll be waiting a long time.

Speaking of waiting, I'm waiting to see one of your fictional
motherboards that can run Windows and I'm waiting to hear how you're
running Windows after removing all of the drives, as you claimed
yesterday. I have a feeling I'll be kept waiting, too.

If you're basing your ridiculous position on something you think you
read from Microsoft, my advice would be to step away from the computer
or close the book. You're in way over your head.

Please enlighten us, wise one, how you were able to coax a motherboard
to run software. I'm always curious when the impossible suddenly
becomes possible.


Load it, remove drives, no case, keyboard, mouse, video needed. Just
what is on the motherboard and power. Since we know that the PSU isn't
the "Computer" and since we know that the PSU can't run the software....

I get the feeling that you don't know the difference between a
computer and a motherboard.

I have actually designed motherboards as well as cards and peripherals
for computers - so why are you running away from the question?

Sorry, Mark, I don't believe that for a second. The ignorance you've
shown in this thread clearly says it isn't so. Of course, this being
Usenet and all, you're free to say whatever you want. You don't have
anyone fooled, though.

And you continue to show your ignorance and willingness to misdirect.

What runs the software? You already, in another reply, said the computer
was inside the square box - so, what runs the software and try and
answer in the context of the EULA.

As I've told you several times, what "runs the software" is a
motherboard, a CPU, some RAM, some storage, one or more input devices,
one or more output devices, a power supply, etc. I'm not sure why you
need me to keep repeating this to you.

You are factually and technical incorrect - the software does not RUN
with the INPUT DEVICES, OUTPUT DEVICES, POWER SUPPLY.

Tell us - what software runs on the Power Supply, the Hard Drive, the
Mouse, The Keyboard, that would be covered under the MS EULA, the
community awaits your next misdirection.

You're not even pretending to stay on topic anymore. Start a new
thread if you have additional questions.

The topic is the EULA as it relates to OEM licensing.

Still waiting for you to define, in the context of the EULA, what the
software runs on - you're starting to repeat your denial.

If you have EULA questions, take them up with someone else. I've only
been correcting your many false technical claims. Thanks to this
thread, you now know a lot more about computer hardware than you did a
few days ago.

How many times do you need to hear the answer before you understand
it? You sound like a broken record. I suggest a beginning course at
your local community college because the question you keep asking will
be covered in the first week.
