Dodgy, stay away! even more so when they say " Note, that you will not be able to register the software with the manufacturer and get their support " That is fair enough for OEM anyway, but the s/w recognised as backup sets alarm bells ringing. They seem to steer clear of the work licence too. If they had valid licences then I would expect they to have that hightly visible as it would be a major selling point. Sounds to me like they have got a job lot of OEM discs from companies going under which never got shipped with hardware. -- This post does not reflect the opinions of all saggy cloth cats be they a bit loose at the seams or not GSX600F - Matilda the (now) two eared teapot, complete with white gaffer tape, though no rectal chainsaw
