Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

A co-worker just received his Neo Ion iPod adapter for his car, and he's totally in love. I'm intrigued. Looks like a fairly small doohickey, and it makes your CD player/tape player controls control the iPod.

What Dana said.

Companies get specially non-boxed versions of software at massivly discounted prices to include with their computers/drives.etc. They usually have specially licensed versions of the end user agreement.

t snicker, chortle, guffaw Remembering Microsoft support days: "No, ma'am, I'm sorry, but six other people in two other states have registered that product already. No, ma'am, I can't give you support for a non-registered product. Not even if you ask nicely. Especially not if you swear at me. Good-bye, ma'am."
