VMWare Fusion academic pricing - half off

This part of their EULA is funny:

VMware audits this data to insure that academic purchases are only made by eligible participants. If VMware determines that you were not eligible to purchase from the VMware Academic Store, you authorize VMware to charge your credit card or Paypal account for the difference in price between the public retail price of the same product (published on vmware.com) and the price you paid on the date you placed the order.

That's basically the same wording M$ uses regarding the $30 student pricing of Win7...

"Microsoft or an appointed vendor may contact you to verify that you are a current student. If documentation is not provided indicating that you are a current student, you will be liable to reimburse Microsoft for the difference between what you paid and the estimated retail price of the software."
The difference is, and what's key for me, is VMWare is saying they'll just run your card.
