<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yes this is a correct statement however there seems
to be some misunderstanding as to its meaning. It is quite commen in todays
computer market for "OEM" products to be sold with a machine licence rather then
a user licence. In essence it means it is not permissble to uninstall the
software and then sell or install it on another machine, it does not mean you
can not uninstall it. It also means if the pc is sold later the software must
accompany the box</FONT></DIV>
