you only need the hardware sentinel key if you are running ArcGIS Desktop and ArcInfo Workstation NT and you only need to buy it once! There is no sentinel key required for ArcView and other ESRI software.One other thing . . .
ArcInfo keycodes time out each June 30 with a drop dead timeout of July30. The University's $15,500 yearly site license fee is due on or before July 1. This allows ESRI to be paid and then they will reset the web interface to the next year timeout date, which makes it possible to write licenses for the new year and put them in place before the old ones timeout.
