A relicensing fee on used software is common practice in the industry. I
won a Wilcom package a few years ago, never installed/used it. I sold it
shortly thereafter and the buyer still had to pay the fee.

Same level upgrades from EDS3 ($500) and EDS4 ($250) to DesignShop are
on sale this week. It's a great deal.

I have been on the Amaya list for some time now, trying to decide on
what
our next machine would be.  I liked the features of Amaya and have an
EMT
currently. My wife was NOT impressed by the AMAYA, so my being on the
list
has been an attempt to see who was right :-)

After the numerous posts I have seen, I can tell you I will NOT get an
Amaya!  I will go with Barudan's.

Plus, we bought our EMT used and then Melco said if we wanted to use the
old
EDS software we would have to pay a $600 relicensing fee because the
former
owners, who died, were listed as the software owners.  We could then pay
another $600 for a software upgrade if we wanted.

I'm using my other software, rather than paying them $600 to change a
file
label.  I LOVE my EMT, but I am not fond of Melco.

We just talked with Melco regarding a couple of issues.
We wanted to initiate a serivce call and I won't go into that.

When we inquired regarding the latest update on the Amaya OS software
(we
have 4.02)
and lastest is 5.something and inquired why we have not received the
updates,
we discovered that it has to be initiated by YOUR TECH. YOUR TECH has to
place the order to get the software update.
And it now costs you to get a tech. If we have to pay to get a tech JUST
to
get the upgrade, that will really
be too much.

We thought the software upgrades would be shipped to owners
automatically.

We have not had much to say on the Amaya and Melco til now, but this
takes
the cake.

OH WELL so much for MELCO. At least the end of our two year warrnaty is
approaching and we just won't worry
 about Melco after that.
