How does Corel term a User?

The way I understand M$ licensing is "Device" or "User"... so trying to understand it with Corel GS.

 

A license to allow the same "user" to login to various computers to operate the software (one computer at a time)

or

A license to allow the same "device" (computer) to share many users (one user at a time).  Bob/Jim/Harry.

 

can someone clear that one up for me, i keep counting 'users' as in people using say 5-10 computers with the same software installed but only counting the actual user roaming between departments.

I'm not the person to answer this........but what you described sure doesn't sound right to me.

The way I understand it is.......................... ONE user and the software can be installed on TWO computers but not used simultaneously.

 

I'm sure someone from Corel will give you a more definitive answer.

Can it? I haven't pulled apart the small print for a while so I thought I post an open question here.

anyone else got the small print in front of them

 

 

Can CDR5 be installed on more then 1 computer and that same user must only use one at a time?   So a kinda single user license?

CorelDRAW 5 or CorelDRAW X5? Your question asked about the former.
 
I am not a lawyer and I don't work for Corel so please take the answer with that understanding. To the best of my knowledge you are allowed to have CorelDRAW X5 on two computers as long as they are never used concurrently.

hey good to see you Foster...

 

Well after 'searching' these forum I came up with the answer... someone from corel was pointing someone to www.corel.com/legal where the End User agreement states that 1 user for 1 Computer and then an additional selection for Home and Laptop use, so you can install 2 versions for thoese purposes, which will help with the license plan for laptops.

 

doesn't corel have a sales email address?

I have admit, quite impressed with the new X5 trial :)
