Re: v5r1 license key

Of course that would only drop the AS/400 to about the same as NT...

Clearly, the IBM licensing system assumes that you are unwilling to
scratch
your system every 70 days.  This is a hole.  If you have enough free time
and risk tolerance to scratch your system every 70 days, you either have
much to much free time on your hands; or are in the wrong business.

Let's say that "someone" is running v5r1 and doesn't have a license key.
Without getting into the moral dilemma of the whole thing, let's say that
person was willing to scratch their system every, oh, let's say 70 days or
so. Would that give this horribly amoral person another 70 days or so per
scratch to run without the key? Would it make a difference if the scratch
was done from a Save opt 21 vs. IBM media?
