Electronics Forum / CAD / August 2005WTB Protel 99SE Lecenses
Hi All Any idea where I can buy 2 Protel 99SE licenses? Altium only sells DX now, however I have contacted them and they inform me that it' perfectly legitimate to trade 99SE licenses as long as the selle informs them of the transfer Any help appreciated not all Protel 99SE can be sold.. it depends on what year it is. so be warned Simon > Hi All, > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Any help appreciated.

The safe bet is simply to check the EULA regarding transfers/sales and then double check with Altium that the license is available for transfer prior to actually putting the cash on the table. Abdul Rahman (Lomax Design) has the Protel resale group on Yahoo groups. You will undoubtedly find a lot more tips/suggestions there because Abdul has handled a number of transfers and has written about the process several times. All that said, you may find it hard to find a seller. I have not heard of many sales or offers for sale over the past several years.

They were changing the EULA and changed it for both at the same time. Both packages were offered for sale at the time as the change over wasn't really started.

It was after the release of DXP and you did get copies of both versions. Since it was after the release of DXP where they had changed the licenses to exclude guaranteed resales, I figure that they had probably also changed the P99SE EULA on those P99SE packages as well.

However.. there was also a time when you could buy Protel 99SE by itself, without an automatic upgrade, and the EULA had changed to prevent resale. It was only for a year I believe .. but an important one Simon > Simon, > What I was talking about was a promotion they ran where you [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > > > Simon Simon, Was not disagreeing with you but just trying to clarify the details of my reference. I had heard that there were P99SE sold with the updated EULA but have never heard any discussions with anybody that knew the precise details.

[quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Simon Thanks guys I did check out Lomax, but the market's a little dry at the moment i seems Will keep watching the Yahoo grou http://groups.yahoo.com/group/protel-users-resale and see if anything pops up Might have to settle for Circuitmaker Any feedback on this, or is it a poor substitute for 99SE or DXP (Will it import 99SE libraries? |
