I would really like to avoid modal interfaces, if at all possible.
On the first page of registration, the user has done little (written his or her
email address) or no work. All in all, I think that the user will be more
confused by a pop-up window.
I have an alternative idea! We could put the T&C in a DIV, set it to scroll
("overflow: scroll") and put it in a disclosure widget. That way the user can
see them if he or she wants, but we do not pretend that the user is *actually*
going to read it! (It is not as if the Acceptable Use Policy, Terms of Use
Policy and Privacy Statement are not on every single page on most of our
sites.)
