Yes,that's right,NeoStar01:I think the link to the sign-up page @ Symantec was posted over at Doc's forum.There was a heated exchange of posts about people signing up for more than one copy.
I dont recall seeing any mention of "resellers only" on that sign-up page,but it's been a while since I signed up for it.
