Warning to potential buyers of RhinoCAM

When I was first shopping for software several years ago I decided on RhinoCAM but almost did not buy it because it needed a dongle and they will not replace a lost dongle. You need to repurchase the software if you loose it.

I have always been very careful about keeping track of my dongle and locking it in my safe, but now I seem to have misplaced it when I moved a few months ago and I had to take everything out of the safe to move it. I am confident that I will find it sometime and that I put it somewhere safe, just have not figured out where that is yet.

I called Mecsoft today to see if there was any way to buy a new dongle for less than full price of the software - no. Surely they have some type of temporary license I can use for 30 days to get out some jobs until I find the dongle - nope. How about downloading the new version demo and using it for a short time - sorry, it will not post. Basically I am screwed. If my dongle just stopped working I assume that I could send it back for a replacement, but would still be down waiting for a new one, and still not sure I could get one without spending a lot of money.

Potential buyers beware.
