So, is it a "dongle" then?
That's what it looks like.
The "silver checkerboard" looks to me like the
remains of a "removal
voids warranty" sticker. It might have formerly
been marked as to the
software vendor or protected product, but now, it
seems to be
anonymous.
If you can find the software that it is expecting,
it's worth
something. Otherwise, it's just a lump.
