Hey Cy,
Send me some eMAIL. It would be nice to catch up, it's been way to long
;-)...
Also when you guys add a second drive and see this change, is the boot drive
chaning? I have run Bootcamp and never lost my license once. I only run
AutoCAD on these two systems, but they work fine for me. I have run AutoCAD
and LT 2007, 2008 and 2009.
Cy, I'm on vacation out at the coast this week, but I have a nice internet
connection, so send me some eMAIL ;-)...
Thanks

For more info, see http://www.autodesk.com/activation -- especially the
White Papers on licensing a few links down.
Autodesk was willing to lessen security in order to increase flexibility for
customers. Again, I don't know what's available today. Be sure you work
problems through Support, not the Auth Codes group.
It's impossible to write software in Windows so as to be 100%, unqualifiedly
compatible with every other conceivable Windows program out there -- unless
you use, say, Java, in which case software the scale of AutoCAD would be
unusably slow. The lower-level the software is -- such as switching out one
OS for another on the fly without reinstalling -- the more likely it is to
conflict with something else. And there's no blame to assign on either
side.
I worked several conflict issues with other software vendors and PC OEMs and
resolved them (5+ years ago), sometimes with a fix on our side, sometimes on
theirs. When this becomes a high-enough priority for either Apple or
Autodesk, it will get resolved. Neither company benefits from lost
business. Report the problem to both.
Or switch to the existing known solution: the network license.

"there were even plans to move the anchor to the registry to be more
flexible"- I do not know what that means, but it seems that it IS, after
all, an Autodesk issue- correct?
Is there a way to resurrect this change in the "anchor" to fix this issue?
