which LC goes to new cards makes the use of scrolling anything other than a

Hi William,
I might be mistaken, but I believe you can install it on as many computers as
you like, as long as you are the only person using it. At least, this was the
case with the Enterprise license (which makes sense, because cross-platform
implies multiple computers).
