I believe the unlocked builds will continue to work and have updates for the duration of this versions lifetime. In the future though, their builds will require a key, so register for one if you think you'll download it at a later time. It's a good opportunity for people to get a taste of what the software can do. I hope this isn't a last ditch effort to stay in business. I used to use them way back in 2000-2001, but have since vowed to use 100% native Linux code if possible. Unfortunately, my download today will be just to try it out, as I'm perfectly happy with Linux software availability. -- Gilbert Mendoza PGP: 0x075DBCA9 Email: gmendoza at gmail.com http://www.savvyadmin.com https://launchpad.net/~gmendoza https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GilbertMendoza
