Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Contracts for the sale of computer software may or may not be governed by the UCC, depending on whether the contract is primarily for the sale of the software itself or for services related to the software. If the contract is predominantly for the software, it falls under the UCC as a sale of goods. However, if the contract is predominantly for ongoing technical support or other services related to the software, it may not fall under the UCC as the primary purpose of the contract is something other than the sale of goods.
