Special VEGA ZZ notes:

VEGA ZZ requires the user registration to obtain the Activation Key generated starting from the Product Key. The Product and the Activation Keys are personal and work with a specific PC/workstation only. You can't activate more than one PCs with the same Activation Key because each PC has a different and unique Product Key. The activation expires after 1 year for non-profit academic users and after 30 days for business companies. After this time it's possible to request another Activation Key. The Authors can change the licensing method in any time on their own decision.
The business companies can't access to the collaborative support without purchasing the Support Pack: help or new feature requests will be trashed if they are from companies without Support Pack. The Authors spent a lot of time to develop a software that, in some cases, includes better performances than several commercial packages. They request a little contribution to the companies in order to continue the VEGA ZZ project otherwise destined to end in the near future.
