I wish it were that simple. That makes sense, but software licenses and "sense" don't always go together. Different companies write the license in different ways. Some license the software to a person (that one person can use it wherever they are), some license it to a single machine (anybody can use it on that one machine), others license it to a single user on a single machine. -Mike _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
