Yep.I did the port.Currently I have no time to actively maintain it.It 
worked some time ago and I added some new code to read HDD hardware 
serial number but as I not needed this components I have no strong 
motivation to continue the efforts.
The main problem with lazarus lcl is that after a few month such 
components are full of nasty bugs due to internal inconsistencies in 
code break by new features of compiler of lcl. For example there is a 
lot of pointer operations without strict type checking.
Feel free to modify as you wish.Forms are used only to generate 
unlocking codes and I think could be excluded from component set as a 
separate program.
