if you upgrade your hardware, that will generate a different system-id... which will not have a valid license attached. at that point, you would drop me a note and i would transfer your license from your old system-id to your new system-id.

think of it as a book license

as for your 'spend'... keyclone at a single $20 payment, per machine, is the smallest part of all your expenses. if you have 3 machines and 5 accounts, the accounts will run you $75/month or $900/yr plus the $800 per machine and $250 per monitor... or a $3100+ one time payment.

so.. $60 for keyclone on 3 machines is fairly insignificant
