POSE does install a feature so you can detect that it's POSE.
Perhaps that's a better work around. I'm assuming you are checking the SN#
for serial number or registration purposes and need to validate against it.
Thus if it's POSE you could simply side step it alltogether.
Then again, You may want a conditional build that Only works under POSE.
The feature info is in the POSER docs somewhere, and in this list if you
search the online eList thing. Bob pointed it out to me a few months ago.
