Bob,
Delcam used to have exactly this as the policy for all of their
software products. The codes only ran for the length of the maint.
period.
Catia, and others, still do this but the implimentation is different
between them.

To All:

I'd be interested in knowing of any other CAD/CAM software that has
this "timing out" feature.


A one year license of K5 can fetch upwards of $500K Bob, or so I hear.
