I wish the MathWorks would resume that practice. Back in the late 90s 
they would sell one licenses for MatLab and SimuLink for an affordable 
price if one singed an agreement that restricted one to personal 
(specifically, non-commercial) use. My copy from back then is so old 
that it won't run on Windows 7.
