Next MorphOS version: 3.0! (Not 2.8)

The license situation doesn't bother me. It's tied to the machine so if you want to upgrade to new hardware just sell the old machine with the license and get another one. It won't be hard to sell. It's my understanding that if your machine breaks they'll give you a new license file. Also, I can't imagine why I'd want MorphOS on every mac in the house. One is enough for me.

If they went the dongle approach, you'd have to wait however long it is to get it shipped from europe and it would increase the cost of the license.

I don't have a problem with the way licensing is implemented for MorphOS. The license I bought for my emac was by far the best bang for the buck I ever got on an amiga investment. If you could just transfer the licenses around then the MorphOS crew would have to require payment for upgrades if they ever wanted any new funds. As it is right now the license is stuck for the machine but it looks like upgrades are always free. That's a pretty good balance imho. I'd have a hard time complaining that I couldn't transfer my license from my emac to the most bad ass ppc PowerMac/MacPro or PowerBook after those guys put in all that time and effort to support those models.
