My targeted platform is 98+ so the GDI+ license per se does not affect that. There are other API problems which generally preclude use on 95 (it works, but not well).
What does bother me, however, is that there are a multitude of bogus "minimum OS" requirements throughout MSDN (which are *all* binding if one bothers to read all of the EULA fine-print). If one were to follow such strictly, the only platform meeting such requirements would be whatever was the most recent offering (2K3 at the moment) and you would be in violation the moment a new one went to Beta. I'm sure their marketing department maintains such a stand, but I seriously doubt the US DoJ would do so -- especially since the documentation is known to be inaccurate at best.

Also, even though it's contrary to the docs, GDI+ also works on > 95. Yes I've found this, however the docs say Win 98 and above because of licensing. If you distribute it for, or use it with a Win 95 system you are in effect using it illegally.
