N is officially 1. In the past (I haven’t registered MindGenius since v1.5) MindGenius Business provided an ‘additional free license’, i.e. a second activation key, so one could install the program at their office and home. I have no idea whether this additional key is provided for educational licenses. If yes, then N=2 for all practical purposes.

Once you have exhausted the licenses things get rather tricky. In Microsoft style, upgrading your Operating System and PC hardware will change the activation code and you won’t be able to re-activate your copy without Gael’s intervention. As far as I remember they were quite helpful, i.e. sending me additional code after I sent them an e-mail explaining the situation. Nevertheless, I wouldn’t say it’s the most convenient approach from the customer’s point of view.

P.S. I should perhaps add, as a comment to an earier post of yours, that as getting one’s cocaine ‘shot’ for less than the regular street price is not really a cure for their addiction, so buying software at reduced price is no cure for CRIMP :-)
