With that said, before putting Michael in jail and throwing away the key, I would suggest that AceCad make sure that they are indeed loosing revenue.

The $24 price on EBAY is a great way for prospective companies to try the software and then come back to AceCad for support, upgrades and yes pay the full fee. If they dont come back to AceCad, I suggest they are not using the software and no loss to AceCad.

This is what AceCad should have been doing themselves.

P.S.
He actually broke the encryption?
Thats kind of embarrassing to AceCad.
Alternatively Michael is a genius and AceCad should hire the guy. I suggest a position in engineering or marketing would be appropriate.
