Maybe you need on-the-road editing/review. Consider loading our software onto your laptop. Maybe you can't edit that 10 gigabyte gds file on the laptop, but you probably CAN edit that 2GB one. Load up linux on that laptop and give it a try. When you dock the laptop, it can serve the license to a big box on your network that can edit that 12 gigabyte gdsii file.
