So, I am stuck with using your application only on one computer? Even though I 
have purchased a license per user? That doesn't sound right. What if my system 
dies? What if I have an office at work and one at home? What if I want to use 
it on a common use computer somewhere remote? Why would I want your product if 
I have all these restrictions?

Maybe you make something that has no alternative, but you should be careful not 
to annoy your customers.
