Quote - I'm assuming it's "locked" the same way other aps like Adobe CS2 are: - You install the software. - You enter the serial number. - You register your serial number. - You get an authentication number for your machine from vue (probably via the web with prompt from screen "wizards" upon first launch, or with a phone call option for the 2 people in the Appalachians that don't have web access). You may or may not have to enter the authentication number manually upon email receipt of auth. number if not the "automatic" way. If you want to move Vue to another machine. You contact vue. You may or may not have to "de-authenticate" your machine. You repeat the installation process for your new machine, and authenticate that machine with a new authentication number from Vue.

That isn't what Agiel said. Agiel said we'll be allowed to install Vue6i on a second machine (such as laptop) as long as we don't use the copy on the first machine at the same time.

I have Photoshop CS2 and I can tell for sure that you can NOT install CS2 on a laptop if you installed it on your desktop machine first, you must first deactivate the desktop installation and then install on the laptop - just like you said.

Agiel said he verified with E-on about that, so if he says that we'll be able to install V6i on both our desktop PC and laptop PC, we have to trust him: he's got first hand news from E-on.
