Hi Riverstream. Thanks for your comments. I have worked with dongled software systems as both a developer/administrator, and an end user. Believe me, it always ends up being a proverbial PITA - sooner or later.

The administration overheads are significant, and the time to resolve user's issues is high, and most often incredibly inconvenient for the end user.

We purchase one single copy of the software with one license, and PGM lets us install and run it on three different systems, no questions asked.

Try running it on 3 different machines with one dongle.

And fundamentally, PGM have an absolute right to protect their investment from piracy.

Frankly, I reckon that's a pretty good arrangement. If you want it on more machines (let's say 6), just buy another copy.

My two cents anyway.

Regards

Trevor
