Capture of USB Dongle traffic?

The Party Party.

John

I can't speak at John's politics, but from my impression from meeting him once and chatting for a few minutes, he seems like a man that don't have no truck with any of them idiots, on either side. ;-)

I'm guessing that if he was in any political party, it'd be something like "The Enigmatic," or "The Informed Optomists' Party." ;-)

Cheers! Rich

Surely you can do better:

Vendor gone bust and dongle enforces lame-o-matic 1 year expiry date and/or one needs to reload $OLD_PROJECT (which is now hidden away in secret proprietary format to "protect the CAD vendors IPR while screwing the customers (tm)".

"To thine own self be true."

and/or

Aren't we all - to various degrees - f.ex. the very purpose of my "career" is to eliminate the need to ever go to work in the furture and make it a voluntary thing.

Well Done - the vendor has simply no right to lock our work into his application merely to keep extorting money! They can protect the core application all they like, but the file formats should be open.
