I bought the hardware without knowing that and have a device bound license. It's weird that the software literally degrades when the device isn't attached.
The hardware limitations are crazy and weird, especially when you realize that parts of the limits are purely trough the visualisation. But when you have a supported device the performance is amazing even on older hardware. (I run it on a Wyse 5070)
Like all non free (or any software) it's a double sided sword. However it's one of the few industries where the monopoly software is actually not bad at all and doesn't force you into monthly payments when you buy their devices (which is basically industrie standard anyway, and not actually that much more expensive).
