Jim, re: "If you don't want to register it you get 50 uses and then it quits unless you register". QuickBooks Pro 2000 works the same way. It didn't bother me any. They offer multiple ways to register: Online, fax, or phone. Software licenses have always stated that you are not buying the product outright, but are buying a license to use the company's copyrighted product. So they have always had the right to use whatever means necessary to make sure you are in compliance. For years I used an accounting software package that had one of those dongles that had to be plugged into the parallel port. One dongle per license.
