The following post is the second of two that I am reposting to the PEDA Forum because I believe that it contains very important information which I believe is important to notify all Protel 99 and DXP customers and users of, since it may personally financially affect many of those customers and users.
The original post was made in the Protel-Users-Resale Forum on Yahoo! Groups, which has only 46 members, yet it provoked this official response from Altium that affects the entire Protel User Community as a whole, and I therefore believe it is necessary to repost here in the PEDA Forum. Respectfully submitted, JaMi Smith ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phil Loughhead" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, November 18, 2002 5:13 PM Subject: RE: [protel-users-resale] Protel 99se for sale? Notice regarding the transfer of a Protel DXP license. The following is an extract from the End User License Agreement, that you as the purchaser agree to on purchase of a Protel DXP license. "User may permanently transfer the entire Software Product to any third party only upon obtaining written consent from Altium, providing that the original User destroys all remaining copies of the Software Product, and any portions thereof, and that the third party accepts the terms of this EULA in its entirety." Note that the DXP EULA requires that you obtain written permission from Altium to transfer the license. Under the terms of the EULA, transfer of a license without written consent would be deemed as a violation of the agreement, resulting in termination of the license. Altium is not opposed to the transfer of licenses for legitimate business reasons, such as an organisation that is restructuring its operations and no longer needs a license. However, Altium does not perceive its products as a generally tradeable commodity, and as such does not encourage the general trade of product licenses. Altium requires that you obtain written permission to ensure that a transfer is carried out in the correct manner; that all versions covered by the license are transferred, that the seller is the legal owner of the license, and that the purchaser is recorded as the new legitimate owner.

I am working on one DXP license; as one might expect, if I obtain it, I'd be asking about $6500. This is $1500 less than the current price from Altium, and a resold license is *exactly* the same as a new one. (Of course, one must always make sure that the license is legal and that it is transferable, some aren't.) Yahoo!
