Hey Sebastian,
no harm done.
I´m with Stephan, owner and licensee is a nasty difference.
The old days where nice, a physical dongle providing prove, control
and means of actually bringing your license to where you needed it.
It was easy to forget or snap the USB one, too :-)
Cheers,

Hi
You can borrow a network license, but you have to connect to your home
machine and check out the license first.
For a laptop that's not too bad, but for a workstation in the office
it's probably going to be a problem.
A standalone license can be transferred via the License Transfer Utility
I have never done it but arent you allowed to "borrow" a license from home?

I think that this is the most reasonable and easy solution for your problem.
Use a laptop with your own license. Sounds perfect!

Sebastien, what about using Softimage on a laptop and transfer the files
on a usb drive?
Should work for modeling just fine.

Wow, it's so close to the tweak tool, they should give Softimage a nod.
This looks great. However, without the rigging integration, it's not
very alluring to me.

Each and every single one of them is different and yet they

I had a similar experience a couple years ago at a studio how has a

This is kind of amusing considering Autodesk was basically giving away
SoftImage with every purchase of Max and Maya. Now, you have to provide
your own Soft license?
Not a good precedent to set in my opinion.

Is it leased by you?
I'm not a lawyer, but I understand that clause as meaning that you
personally have to own, lease, or control the computer where you install
Softimage.

Hi
The License Agreement defines the terms of use:
http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=10235425#section29
Territory and number of installs are the most obvious restrictions.
Assuming you purchased your license in the EU, then you can use it
anywhere in that territory.
Could you ask them to install a trial in the meantime?
