Jay_dup1 Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Help!!! - I gave up on my Mac G4 and switched to a PC running XP. However, I would still like to use my VECTORWORKS ARCHITECT 9 on the PC. Would anyone be interested in swapping serial numbers for a PC version of Architect 9 for my Mac version? If so, email me! Thanks. J Quote Link to comment
defjef Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 This is another interesting issue for users. I work on both platforms. I believe that for users who do there should be some sort of pricing structure for upgrades which recognizes one who uses both platforms without making them pay full freight on BOTH.

jnr Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 I believe that you can contact the company and they will issue you a serial # for the PC. I've had friends do this in other offices. I don't think it cost anything. If you look at the license agreement, I think it says one user and one computer at a time. They should not have a problem with a switch. Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Discounts for purchasing more than one license, whether it be one platform or two, can be discussed with someone in Sales. 1-888-646-4223 Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 One more thing, if someone swaps serial numbers, or sells a copy of VW, please make sure you review the License Agreement to verify you are exchanging licenses legally. Quote Link to comment
Jay_dup1 Posted June 26, 2003 Author Share Posted June 26, 2003 Thank you all for your reply. I called Nemeschek, told them my situation. They said to provide me a serial number for the PC I would have to "purchase" one from them. It would cost $300+. I just upgraded from MiniCAD 7 to Vectorworks 9 last year and paid $600 for it. I work alone, so every penny counts - $300 is alot of pennies. Quote Link to comment
buz Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Jay - maybe you could sell your Mac version outright and turnaround and buy the PC version. Probably still cost a bit in the end but if using Mac's is dead for you then why not? Quote Link to comment
