Very wise choice because I bought a licence 3 years ago which turned out to be a HUGE mistake. After messing around with the simplest of things for many weeks and getting virtually nowhere, I came to the conclusion that I'd paid them for the privelege of being an alpha tester!! Quite simply put, it wasn't fit for purpose. With the help of their support guys, it took ~10 days to get it to actually boot. USB support was terrible. DOS-OS/2 sessions didn't work. Win-OS/2 sessions didn't work. The included version of Firefox was ancient and took forever to load. Those are just some of the things that spring to mind off the top of my head. My licence has long since expired and I've not read anything anywhere that makes me want to rush out and buy another licence.
