since I have only one mac and several windows PCs, so my work flow
sometimes prefers working on a Windows boxes. I've only ever used
container controls from the pro license so I want to migrate to
personal if FTC supports it, as my main project that I am about to
(re)start would be built around FTC provided it works as advertised.


From what you described above, remote debugging and cross
compiling is what you want which are professional features. With
remote debugging you can run and test on a Windows system and
with cross compiling there is no need to have more than one
license. Personally, my experience has been that developing
software for the Windows platform is much faster when you develop
it on the Mac. Using the remote debugger to test it and this is
how I developed the FTC itself. So you might want to reconsider
your work flow to take advantage of the remote debugging and cross
compiling.

If you have already bought a professional license in the past,
renewing your license should only be $250 and you would only need
one license. Contact RB sales to work it out with them.
