I'll re-iterate what Jean said (thanks, Jean). There's no new restriction
with the license for S-PLUS regarding laptops whether docked or undocked, but
there is a quirk with the license manager when a laptop moves from docked to
undocked state that appears to have been causing problems for some. If you
experience this problem, please contact support@insightful.com, who will be
able to fix the problem for you.
