Expensive Mistakescoopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"
No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

Maybe it's different over there?Here in the US it doesn't typically come with a hardware lock- at least, I have never seen one. As I write this, my computer has a copy of AutoCAD on it and no lock- but then, we have a site license here.
I think that these days they have AutoCAD call home through the internet, so they can check it that way- but I'm not sure.
I think they were running r14 at the time on Windows NT. I remember that one of the IT guys had been bugging them about getting legit with AutoCAD, so they had bought some copies of it that he kept stacked against a wall- but they were still at least 60 copies short, as I recall.
Booya.
