Yes, Apple’s standard license (this is copied from the latest iTunes update) does contain a don’t-use-this-in-power-plants clause: “THE APPLE SOFTWARE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN THE OPERATION OF NUCLEAR FACILITIES, AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION OR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEMS, LIFE SUPPORT MACHINES OR OTHER EQUIPMENT IN WHICH THE FAILURE OF THE APPLE SOFTWARE COULD LEAD TO DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, OR SEVERE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE.” The revision of this is: “EA0367 Rev 9/7/06″. I’ll post any other “interesting” bits from the Apple license later.

I think Mac OS X has a similar statement to make sure they don’t get sued if a mac causes a nuclear facility to malfunction.
