>Apparently, you can satisfy the legal requirements by including _any_ hardware.

Yes; I thought this was something that only happened in Greece (which is notorious for its legal loopholes) but obviously it’s common practice in many countries.

The biggest computer vendor herr, with about 40% of the market, sells Operating Systems upgrades this way, though not much else. If they didn’t offer it at such competitive pricing, most people would probably use pirate copies (as for most software aimed at private use in the country).
