Licenseing-- per machine or per OS?

Published on October 2, 2007 By desii3D In WinCustomize Talk

Was just wondering, here is the situation: I own a laptop that dual boots (XP and Vista)
I own a license for WB6 that is tied to my email, which I keep sync'd between the 2 OS's. If I install on both OS's is that an infringment? and if so... does Stardock have a volume license agreement?
Along those lines.... what about volume licenses for OD? I can see vast potential for locking down public/corporate pc's with that along with Active Directory's security policies.

Fabulous! Who do I talk to about licenseing WB for my entire enterprise (about 120 users)?

Limitations are to number of computers, not to how many instances on them...such as dual-boots or in my case [for example] - virtual machines.

So you're fine...
