Too bad, Malte.

If you were running Mac OS, you could get the Mac serial # via the 
System Profiler and check it against a target serial # in your 
app...assuming your app is priced high enough to bear the overhead of 
burning a separate CD for each installation.

Speculation: why don't other computer manufacturers (or Intel) 
include a call to uniquely identify a computer?  Is it perhaps 
because they DON'T WANT to discourage "small scale" software piracy?

Why hasn't the software industry pressed manufacturers for this 
simple solution instead of everyone trying to devise her/his 
uncrackable proprietary license scheme?
