I don't think it would require a specific law. They sell you the software,
grant you a license that's not limited in time. So you have two contracts: a
sales contract, and a license agreement. Neither are limited to a specific
CPU; you are free to carry the software product from one PC generation to
the next.

If Coda stopped the software activation at some point in the future, they
would 

a) void the original sales contract
b) cancel the license agreement
c) violate your property rights
   etc.

This would be against all rules of trading. I don't know the specific laws
in the U.S., but they're sure there.

Cheers,
Tobias
