Hm, this intrigues me, it would seem to me that the only way for SAS  
to check that only one of your colleagues uses it at any given time  
would be to contact some sort of online server. Does that mean that  
SAS can only be run when you have internet access?

Or is it simply a clause on the license, without any "runtime checks"?
