Sorry if this has been asked already, but why do they need a code to testdrive
the programs? I understand the use of codes for purchasing and unlocking the
program, but why bother having to call up just to try out the demo? There are
over 30 programs on this CD, and I don't want to have to call up over and over
again to try different things. Will a code on one person's machine work on
someone else's (for testdriving the demos)? i.e. can you share codes with your
friends?
