A company can stick whatever it likes in its EULA (or any contract), but that doesn't make it legally enforceable. Company lawyers are paid lots of money to be extremely defensive. It costs them nothing to disclaim all warranties, the only purpose of which seems to be to dissuade some people from taking them to court because of this.
I am more familiar with UK law, but I am certain that under US law if there is a constradiction between what is stated in an otherwise valid contract and US law, then US law takes precedence and the legal contract is modified to comply with US law. It must be that way otherwise you could sign people into slavery by just saying "look its here in the contract". Or "no I am legally allowed to beat my wife, see she signed this contract saying I could".
