The HASP was basically a USB key that allowed use of the program on multiple computers. You could only use PTBiz on the computer that had the HASP plugged into it.<br><br>Another one of those pesky security features that contributed to the death of the software. :-) (Which I still use and like, but am looking for another program that doesn't cost a fortune and is more user-friendly than the ones currently available.)
<br><br>The last "new" version that I know of allows unlimited installs without any security keys - software or hardware. I bought it a couple years ago because of a computer crash. There might be two new features, but it works essentially the same. Ed "let me" buy it for $150 since I had been a user for a long time. When I asked him if he had a lower "upgrade price," he said, "That is the upgrade price." :-) I forget how many upgrades I purchased, including the HASP. But all things considered, it has been well worth the money. I wish it hadn't gone away...had great potential.

<div>does anyone have a HASP that works with PTBiz that you'd be
willing to sell? I need it to operate PTBiz on a second computer and
I can't afford to purchase a new HASP or the new version of the program
yet.</div>
