Most software license agreements say that you won't disassemble the code or reverse engineer the product. For example, here is a section from section 3 of the Microsoft Software License: "You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the SOFTWARE." Since you work at Microsoft, you should be careful about using company equipment to disassemble Apple code, or who knows what lawsuits could result? Microsoft would probably not want to argue in court that such agreements are invalid, after all! Tim Smith ps: of course, I bought MacNosy only to look at my own code. Doesn't everybody? :-)
