the dongle is a little device you plug into the printer port on the PC - it was an old way of enabling SW - you could install the SW on any PC you wanted, but you have to physically plug the dongle into the one you wanted to use, so only one person could be using it at any given time.
Sounds like this has been obsoleted, and a CD key is used now.
So what do other teams do? do you all buy multiple copies of 3DSM so that more than one person can work on it at a time?
I would think that since we own a copy from the previous 5 years, we should be allowed to have 5 people using it at the same time, right? (ie, if it were still running with the dongles, we would have 5 dongles by now).
So what would I have to do to get 3DSM running on several machines in the next week or so, to allow the students to practice with the software? Are we stuck with using the demo version for a month?
what would we do after the kickoff then, when we will need more that one copy of Rev 6?
