Interesting topic about electronic embroidery patterns. For those who don't know, these suckers run in the hundreds for some collections. The sewing machines themselves cost thousands and the software that uses them is some of the most horrible that I have *ever* encountered. Not to mention, they also still use USB keys and dongles, seven or eight serial numbers, and a whole slew of really irritating stuff.

Oh, I don't like the companies involved either. :)

One of the questions I have is, is someone responsible for knowing if they got stolen stuff? Or, is it the seller beware?
