Now, I have around 10 Essentials, Windows tokens for all of them, but 
only 4 Linux tokens... which I don't mind, since we're running 
Windows-only anyways...
A few years back I had a chat with someone from Softimage on this, and 
this was the info I got on this topic...

Besides that there are also universal platform tokens available, I think this is just for Soft to keep track of how their userbase looks like, any customer is eligable to run his licenses on any platform available, but it might happen that Softimage licensing has to regenerate new platform tokens before one can do so.
