Do you suppose it would accept other "samples"? I have one I'd like to
submit if that policy is true for Macs, as well. I suspect it is since
the beta testing required it. Perhaps something a little less
obtrusive could be used instead of a dongle, say a flashing red warning
beacon? I'd be embarrassed to show something to a customer/client that
required the use of these.

RSI - these things are annoying. I've had the damn thing pull off the
keyboard while moving the phone, keyboard, coffee cup, etc. At home, I
can't close the keyboard drawer on my desk and have my keyboard at an
angle to keep it from being twisted off. I suspect it has sustained a
bit of physical damage due to crimping. I have about a 75% chance of
recovering the use of the system when it comes off. Usually, the
minimum effect is having to restart the 3-button mouse software I use
with MachTen. Please consider a real license manager for these problems
rather than the hardware approach. Of course the license managers are
not without their faults. It took us longer to install the license
manager than the software.
