Thank you, I appreciate the heads up. Will have to investigate. Interesting, that he has disabled translation of this page via bing translator. So I cannot translate it - at the moment.

Copy and paste into a separate translation page/window still works. You may have to break it up into more manageable chunks. Most of it is basically from the description on the Karma website.

Yeah, it's just text copied from my website. So I really can't tell if he is selling one copy (his own) or not. I don't know what name he may have registered it under if he bought one. Does anyone know if he uses the name "Janis Peters" or "Arturs Rons"?

His real name is Ron Geraets, or Ron geraerds comes from Maastricht in the Netherlands.

He also uses nick names: Ron Synthe and Alex Bindler. From the last he says it's a friend but I think it's the same guy.

Btw, the advertisement is not available anymore, either it was a (legal or nonlegal) and he closed it, or marktplaats took it offline after they or others complaint.

Also, I found an advertisement from Run selling his Motif, so maybe he also sold his Karma software.

I hope he does not get into Korg again ... or maybe he impoved his life (that would be better).
