Is that becoming more common, that music software vendors abandon 
dongles?  I found it hilarious that in the same issue of Keyboard 
with the feature on Linux audio, there was also an article on how 
great dongles and Internet activation were because they make all this 
wonderful proprietary software possible.  It was like I'd traveled 
back in time to 1994 or something.
