Dongle questions

Since PCS is gone until Monday, thought I'd post the questions here to see if someone has had experience with them.
Currently I can install my WD on my home machine, work development machine and on-the-road laptop, but I can only use one machine at a time with the dongle. But my questions involve multiple machines and multiple licenses.
You own two copies of WD with Dongle1 and Dongle2. You install WD on six machines (each user has three machines each under the above scenario) but only use Dongle1 during the installs. Will any of the installs of WD work with Dongle2, or do the installs want to see Dongle1's serial number?
PCSoft offers multiple license packs (3, 5, 10 and 50). What I don't know is if the 3/5/10/50 licenses come with 3/5/10/50 separate dongles, or if they make one dongle for a server on the network? And if only one on the server, does the PCS license allow installs on more than 50 machines but just count concurrent logins up to the license limit (not per seat but per server)?
Only been on the job for a month and I get questions like these...

Windev's dongle concept is not all-for-one but it's one-for-one.
It means, for example, pc soft will ship you 3 dongles if you purchase 3
licenses.
All CDs shipped are identical but the serial numbers of the dongles are different.

No matter of how many workstations you install the windev programs, you
only have 3 workstations at most, in this case, can run and develop the windev
program.

You can unplug the dongle and plug to any one of the workstation that has
the
windev program installed.

For the development on the network, you have to create a windev project on
the server.
So programmers can see and develop as a sharing project with their
their workstations' dongles plugged.

Finally, USB dongle is recommended for easy carrying, I mean plugging and
unplugging,
but you have to buy another one if you lose it.
