Hi everyone!!!
Just wanted to follow-up and say that the folks at M100 (BorisFX) did provide me with an activation code for my laptop and I'm now testing out the NLE on it.
I had to do a bit of archive searching to get the DVCProHD codec installed on the laptop so my media would play. Thanks again to Floh (and CC for keeping old posts) as his tips for us users made it possible.

The laptop is a MacBook Pro (OS 10.9) with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5 (4 cores) and 8GB of RAM. So far, everything is going well. [crossed fingers]
