That's exactly what I would like to see. Unfortunately, it seems as
if Revolution has moved away from license keys so I doubt it will
happen.

Serial, all those can be spoofed.
That's right, you can't have a reliable check for the machine. But
what you can do, and I would argue you should do, is check for a
valid IDE license. So the rule could be:
a standalone built with Personal Edition will check whether the
machine has a valid licensed copy of the IDE on it
If there is no IDE, then you get the 10 second start-up screen.
If there is a valid IDE, you get no start-up screen (or maybe a 1-
second start-up)
That way, anyone with the Personal Edition can build and run on
(all) their own machines without being bothered.
