Yes, hobbyist PAKs expire 1 year after issuance. I wouldn't hesitate to
pass on a VMS system with expired PAKs, it's practically a brick until you
load some valid PAKs.
If you're really concerned about it, LICENSE DELETE * would probably work,
but I don't have my VMS system handy to check the help file on the LICENSE
command.

I want to sell a couple of MicroVaxes that I had

The OpenVMS Hobbyist website says I must delete the license PAKS before I transfer the
hardware to someone else.
How do you actually do this?
