    If you're concerned with getting a fake vag com cable then here is an awesome thread with pictures comparing real and fake: http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthrea...stributor-quot

    For software, yes its free, and the license is built into the cable. So download the software from the ross tech website and then it should recognize the original(real) cable and work perfectly.

    Do you happen to know if there is any issue with using the cable on more than 1 computer?

    I know there's not. Done it with my genuine RossTech cable.
