The new license scheme is wrong and will lose sales. Please put back the why it was with the dongle. If you buy 3 you can open up pos on any machine as long as you don't exceade 3.

All of us that have "witched" about this - go vote. Maybe, just maybe, someone at MS might see the light and work to change this.

I'm pretty sure user input/voting may be what helped get the dongle eliminated in the first place. hmmm

I don't think they want the dongle back, just the concurrent licensing and evaluation period that went with it. Craig

I guess I do not understand why we cannot have the best of both worlds.

You would activate every license through Manager then every time a station opens POS it just checks the concurrent count and does either allow /deny based on your number of concurrent licenses.

It seems that the "activation" scheme may just be filtering down from Windows into every other product group.
