Will someone please describe in more detail what it means to upgrade to 
5.0.13 native Windows?

Does it mean that if you have the filePro executables on a server hard 
drive, that you may not run them on a developer workstation at the same 
time?

Does it mean that if you upgrade your hard drive, you must receive a new 
authentication key before you can run filePro?

Seems like I remember something about splash screens loading before you 
can use your programs. Is that true? What are the details?

Thanks!
