So, curious how MorphOS license works in that today, if I have MorphOS on one system, decide to upgrade to a better system, can I move the license to the new system and kill it from the old?

tj

No. There is no way to warrant that the license really got destroyed. One maschine - one license.
If your reg'ed maschine breaks and you can provide evidence for that you get a new keyfile issued for free.

You can still try it out for 30 minutes at a time, which usually plenty since you'll need to reboot long before that anyways if you try out old Amiga software on it.

I think I know what you wnat to say, but let me tell you that I had only a single freeze since the 2.5 release yet. But I am not testing old Amiga apps anymore, my system is balanced since a couple of years...

What's the issue with the old Amigs software running on it? Is it unstable?


It isn't generally unstable, but software hitting the Amiga custom chips direclty may cause a crash. It ain't a big deal and I run several older softwares on my MorphOS systems and, as said already, had only a single freeze since the 2.5 release on my Mac mini.
