Sorry to here of your misfortune. Unless you insured your setup you will be stuck with the charges set by the company. This is not "Bad Customer Service" to me it is "Great Customer Service"!

Software Pirating is rampant, do a search for Digitizing Software on Google, Bing or whatever and you will fine offshore and onshore sites/torrents that have illegal software for sale/download. By being strict in their policy on replacing security keys/dongles the various companies do their best to protect those who purchase & use their software, these keys allow for upgrades and updates to improve your products to keep you above those using illegal software.

On the same token, how many out there have actually read the EULA on your Digitizing Software? The vast majority of companies that provide the digitizing software specify that it is to only be installed on "ONE" computer at a time with or without the security key. How many have it installed on an on-site business computer and a home computer or laptop? If you do you are in violation of the EULA that could actually wind you up in court! It doesn't matter if you only use it when you swap your security key. I personally know of several businesses that violated the EULA on their software and were located due to updates on several computers with the same security key, legal warrants were issued, computers were taken, checked and found to be in violation of the EULAs and the owners were given the choice of going to court or closing down.

Is it Worth It! Only you can decide!

not sure since his post is over 3 years old, but he might have used CorelDraw.. a Wings program affiliate? that would allow him to output to dst. But he also may have meant when he took his laptop to a client he just did the design in Corel to show them what it would look like.. leaving his digitizing software and dongle safely at home where he later would punch the file to produce a dst output?? either would make sense.
