OK, so there's no technical reason. FWIW, I've always been a proponent of
user based pricing.

Subject: RE: Staying current on releases?

Why can't IBM sell a new box and carry forward the old serial numbers? Is
there ANY reason technology-wise? This software pricing issue has got to
be
hurting Rochester's sales numbers.

There is a legal issue about carrying forward serial numbers to different
box.
If you want that to work, then industry needs to not tie license to serial#.
