At the time (mid 90's when fast, reliable 'net access wasn't widely available) the people doing due-diligence on us were satisfied with seeing the physical media and installation keys. But in no positive way does activation help this part of the process (at least for the developer trying to get the maximum value for his development efforts - and isn't this supposed to be the place "where developers matter"?) And these due-diligence types are highly-paid (and pretty smart) professionals. I'd guess that by now they have heard of activation and recognised its implications for their line of business. -- Paul Scott Information Management Systems Macclesfield, UK. |
