SS and PF are option which have there own serial #'s so if you wish to move to another computer then yes you would need to deactivate then activate them as well. With MC 6 there is a new unified licensing so if you have SS or PF on 5.5 don't deactivate - launch MC 6 and the Avid license control will port your activations over.
Dongle - I hear you. But since licensing is the future... it most likely wont happen.

The installer wouldn't let me because it said I only had a license for one seat. So I had to call Avid Tech Support and have them de-authorize the now defunct version on the original system drive. Not a big deal, but it took a while to figure out what had happened.
