Maybe I'm not reading my license agreements well enough, but I'm not familiar with any software that won't allow me to install it on as many machines as I like, AS LONG AS, it's only installed on one machine at any one time. (i.e.. I must install, use, uninstall, install, use, uninstall, etc) Some, but not all, agreements even allow it to be installed on multiple machines at the same time as long as you are only using one of these machines at any given point in time. -Walden -----Original Message----- From: mcsnet!midrange.com!midrange-l-owner@Mcs.Net [mailto:mcsnet!midrange.com!midrange-l-owner@Mcs.Net]On Behalf Of Mark Lazarus Sent: Wednesday, March 04, 1998 4:41 PM To: MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com Subject: Code/400, tools Chris, At 06:48 AM 3/3/98 PDT, you wrote: >** Reply to note from Mark Lazarus <mlazarus@ttec.com> Mon, 02 Mar 1998 21:04:46 >> That can't happen until software tool vendors are all on board w/ the >> "consultant copy" concept. >> >> -mark > >When I was an auto mechanic I made a lot less than I do now, I spent a lot >more than "a couple hundred bucks a year" on tools, and I never stood >around the Snap-On or Mac truck arguing about how I wasn't going to try >that impact wrench because it couldn't do anything my open end wrenches >would do. I think you missed my point. Very few software vendors structure their licensing agrrement to allow consultants copying the software from machine to machine. Using a laptop is very uncomfortable to me when using it for extended periods of time, so it's not even a consideration. Also, Snap-On doesn't say that you can only use your tools in the first bay!! -mark +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +--- uucp +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
