Re: filmscanners: The Nikon 4000 and Genuine Fractals
I think you want to be careful. I disagree with this position. Most bundled
OEM software is licensed to the computer that has the equipment attached. I
would carefully read the license agreement before sending it to your son.
It's not worth risking his career over this piece of software. I don't know
about the military, but at the company I work at, it is a 'fireable'
offense.
