The Smart notebook software cannot be freely used by anyone. Their website states very clearly about downloading it and copyright rules. On the other hand, Promethean does allow the download of their software.

The smart software is freely available to download from their website. In fact they offer their smart notebook software in a package specifically for people who aren't using the hardware!

I had to vote 'no best answer', because @psionandy is right. Also, @charcha, this isn't the first question you've answered with erroneous information or that didn't actually answer the question. You might want to read this: Mahalo Answers Etiquette to learn more about how to properly answer questions on Mahalo and make the most of your time here. Good luck.

Follow the steps below to download and activate SMART Notebook 10

1. Obtain a product key to activate SMART Notebook 10.
2. Download SMART Notebook software, either by clicking the Download button below or the link in the e-mail you received from SMART when you registered for a product key.
3. During the installation process, enter the product key you received from SMART.
NOTE: If you don't obtain a product key, you can use SMART Notebook 10 for 30 days.

Yes, the software is free to download but unless you get a product key, you can only use it for 10 days. How is this fact refuted?

but the product key for that install is valid on all the computers that may use that bit of hardware.

----quote---
You only have to enter the serial number of one SMART product whether you require single or multiple installations of Notebook software 10. When you have entered the serial number, click Continue to go to the customer information form.

A school that buys 1 smartboard can use the software for all the teachers in that school!
