- I may be wrong, but I think what you have done is still illegal. The
- multiple registration fee only allows the registered owner to make copies
- of the original software. That is the original owner now has a number of
- registered copies, but only one set of disks & manuals.
-
- This means that a school/university can have multiple licences for the
- software, but cannot sell a site licence to a student (kind of defeats
- the object of sellinf software).
-
- Anyone know exactly what the law is?
