For example, consider a scenario where a manager wants to buy ContextExplorer for all members of a 10 person team. The manager purchases a 10 copy license and receives the license number by e-mail. Each team member downloads and installs ContextExplorer on their individual machine. Doing so generates a computer-specific serial number for each user. Each user then provides their serial number to the manager. The manager goes to the activation form, generates 10 registration codes, and sends them to the team members. Each user can now fill in the Registration Code in the Registration dialog box.
