[ED-TECH] Fwd: Urgent Posting for @ the U

If you buy a computer program, and then you don't need it anymore, can you sell it to someone else? I am NOT a lawyer, but my understanding is that the license makes that illegal. If you actually purchased the software rather than licensing it, the "first sale" rule would apply, and you could resell it. Come hear one of the experts in the field talk about this collision between technology and the law and how it is being worked out. (I don't really know what the talk will be about. This is my guess based on the description below.)

The talk is TONIGHT at 5:00 pm in Gusman Concert Hall.
