> The license to their translation layer(which is closed source) is very restrictive

The Windows EULA didn't allow people who built their own computer to buy the cheaper OEM version of Windows. They were supposed to pay full retail.

I would expect to see people care about this license agreement restriction just as much as they did when they built their own PC and installed the OEM version of Windows on it.

Sure, just trying to correct the notion of this being a "win" for open source, Apple still hates anything GPL :)
