Oh I see, it was two different laptops, one with 10.4 and the other with 10.10.

I thought that both started at 10.4 and then had all version updates up until 10.10.

No, because you can install and configure the firewall before you install package X. (without knowing anything about X, your firewall defaults can just prevent X from doing anything)

But you can't (easily) configure package X itself before you install it; and after you install it, it runs immediately so you only get to configure it after the first run.

Even more interesting is the software that does SELECT * FROM just to display two rows.

Doesn't seem more convoluted than any other drawing tool to me. The UI of Monodraw appears to be pretty similar to "regular" drawing software.

Since they are the owners, they can do what they want with it no matter the license. The license only says what others who get a copy of the software can do with it.
