Just give them time to screw up the Corporate Edition. Already, SAV 3.1 for Domino on Windows requires product activation, and requires you to install a new digital certificate every time you renew your license... When you get a chance, try converting from a Managed 8.1 Windows client to an Unmangaged one (hint - the answer isn't documented). The installation process for SAV for Domino for Linux is a hideously broken joke. I can deal with the annoying 10-license-at-a time issue, but their initial forays into DRM for the corporate market are worrying me.

Oh yeah, and why the hell do I have to keep skipping the registration process on products that are only sold in to volume license users that are already registered during the purchase process (I have to do this twice every time I install PC Anywhere 11, unless I create a custom package)?
