DRM -- Product Activation -- Usage Restrictions
PowerQuest has implemented product activation in PartitionMagic 8.02, and may be doing so in other products as well. According to Powerquest's website, the PartitionMagic DRM prevents the customer from using the drive partitioning utility on more than one computer. One reader also reports encountering product activation on PowerQuest's Drive Image 7 product.
