If it doesn't EXPLICITLY state that for every platform you NEED to have a separate copy of the software (I haven't read the finalized license in length but I seem to recall that once you have one legal version of SMSQ/E you can use the other ones) then a current SMSQ/E owner doesn't have a problem getting SMSQ/E from another source... However if that source CHARGES a fee for it then in that case there is a LEGAL problem which doesn't in any case concern the final user as he or she does have a license already... In which case (to restate the obvious) the dispute lies between the SMSQ/E source AND TT not both the end user and SMSQ/E source AND TT.... (Sounds complicated doesn't it?) Phoebus
