I have a plan to reserve these numbers: ...

Looking at your screenshot, you will do well by making realistic plans.
Why do you want to reserve several dozen numbers when this first one will take you several months, huh?

That, in itself, is only a consequence of you stubbornly running a discontinued software which other people only keep around to quickly do some 300-1000 digit numbers.

Advice - learn virtualization. Learn how cross-platform software runs. Learn how to simply hire a computer as needed, run a task and then release it (a computer of OS that you actually need for the task, and leave this windows computer for other, more fitting tasks). Then, you could thank yourself later for making the effort.

• You have Windoze
• Install on it Sun's free Virtual Box
• In Virtual Box install Ubuntu
• In Ubuntu install the latest multi-core Primo
• Profit

That old mono-processor software will not get you very far at all.

Hi Norman,

Do you want Marcel to block us as users from his site (which is the only site that distributes his software)? He can.
Marcel has a serious issue with Microsoft and deliberately destroyed his own software. Talk to him. Marcel was sued by Microsoft (!). Do you think it left him happy? Do you see now why he destroyed it?

P.S.. In addition - who was that post even targeted at? Did you look at the screenshot? Sweety is already running it. So who was it for?

Hello Serge,

thanks for your explanations. This was unwitting by me. My english is not so good to understand each text by only reading.

>Did you look at the screenshot?


Okay, I see it, but I wasn't it !

[Batalov]

Understood. The license for many products is written very similar: if someone has obtained the product, they can run it on their risk even after it is discontinued. But users cannot transfer product. Such is the license.

It is separate from the cost of the license. License could be free but still non-transferrable. We had previously had the same debate (unrelated) about PDFs of manuscripts and entire books. Aaron Swartz was in serious trouble for transfer of "sort of" free content (or, surely, in his reasoning it was free; and he had best intentions).

We live in a sick world !


Okay, lets go on with " Primo reservation thread ".....

Why can you run a much larger number (10^23614+1-10^11807)/91 (http://factordb.com/certoverview.php?pending=true)?

Your reading comprehension is really lacking. You run windows. Everyone else running Primo runs linux.
Primo for windows was discontinued many many years ago. The Primo of that era had lesser capabilities than the Primo of today.

Batalov spelled this out for your a few posts above. Please re-read any of his posts that quote yours, and do what he tells you if you wish to prove any of these numbers from your list. Windows software won't cut it, period.
