True, But what risk? Since production of Boom's has long since been shut down, highly unlikely. So, even if that happens, then just pick another MAC. Or if that bothers you find a dead Boom on ebay, get it's MAC, and then use it. Of course, you then have to go to support to get them to remove it. I've given up on one of my SB receivers that I got on ebay, as logitech hasn't removed it's prior "registration" per request so I figure I'm even. The OP asked a question, I answered it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bitbanger's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59250 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90851 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
