In that same way you could claim it is unfair to those who don't have a PC.

Imho, it is no different than any other requirement in any other contest.

eg: I can't participate in certain other contests because I don't live in the US since living in the US is a requirement. Or I can't participate in that warehouse contest because I don't have a client card, etc....

Contests do have requirements, and running Plus! Live is the only one (and having an internet connection) in this contest.

I understand it too seeing as it promotes his NEW software with OPTIONAL adware but...It would be a nice touch.

Well those people are then idiots (IMO).

A "silent" update would be nice; By silent I mean, no frontpage news, the build number/release date doesn't increase/update, etc. This way no questions are asked and eveyone gets the contest.
