Ron,
I'm sure there is a solution if I'm willing to put up with extra expense
and extra work. Why should I? I doubt Brilliance is all that much more
special than DPaint so why should I compromise my efficiency and take on
additional expense 'cause someone is under the illusion that this will
keep people from pirating th software. All ou gotta do is send the
original disks to that company in WI (forgot the name) and they will break
it for you for $59. But why should I go through the hassle.
Dongles are like the grade school teacher who keeps everyone after school
cause he can't figure out who threw the spitball. Its punitive and
insulting and in the end probably looses as many sales as they would to
piracy. Especially when competing with a similar product with established
reputation and no dongle. Some marketeer at DC made a bonehead move.
