I don't know what the Partition Magic license says. I do know that
if I had purchased Partition Magic and had a DOS computer that I
wanted to partition I would just go ahead and do it.

If I had dozens of hard drives to  partition I would be more concerned
about the legality, especially if I was doing it on a commercial basis.

If this cavalier attitude towards restrictive licenses  makes me a
crook, then I can live with being a crook.
