Rene,
   Same comments I posted 4 weeks ago to another P99SE license enquiry.
Actually, I now see that post was also you. I have never noticed you post to
the PEDA forum. I may have missed it or just deleted it and don't recall. It
would be your absolute best bet but I wouldn't hold my breath.

   As you would have seen in the protel-user-resale Yahoo forum, serveral
similar enquiries and no responses. About 4 - 5 years ago now, when Altium
introduced DXP/AD, there was a run on P99SE licenses being resold between
professional users that didn't want to upgrade to the new software. Since
that time there have been virtually no licenses resales amongst the forum
participants. The main reason for this is that Altium changed their
licensing agreements making resale of licenses illegal (or so their EULA
tries to claim). So anybody that purchased P99SE in approx. 2002 or upgraded
can no longer sell their licenses. Anybody that upgraded cannot sell older
version licenses. So there are virtually no legal/legitimate licenses
available.

I've heard that Courts have ruled in a Business being sold with its assets
that Software (and Licences) *can* be sold. No matter what the EULA trys to
say.

Don't know the details or even if is true.

Robert,
   The controversial issues surrounding EULAs and different jurisdictions
is why I stated "...or so their EULA tries to claim...".

   Similarly you can't claim such EULAs have been overturned the courts.
What courts? Where? Which province/state? Which country? Rene is posting
from Denmark, the Netherlands or somewhere thereabouts. Was it a Danish
court you are talking about? Just demonstrating some of the subtlies you are
overlooking when you made your blanket statement.

   The EULA usually states a country and legal system which 'should'
prevail over their EULA. Even that is not guaranteed when it comes to
international recognition of law.
