..easy now, if these has lawful copies of Wintendo installed, you
_can_ keep them that way. Now if these are the pirated ones you
spoke about, any judge worth his salt will tell you you can _not_
keep them that way, and clarify that wrath of law in your verdict.

..which is why I'm happy to see these 2 boxes came to the club and
not to you, and that a judge might believe how hard it is to get
the club membership to understand why they need to comply to the
license terms under your laws.
