Don't worry. You will definitely get PT11 (with the license for 10 as well).
As long as it's any of the new boxes of the last couple of years that come with the Expansion Pack and the Ilok 2 (it should just say "Eleven Rack + Protools", as opposed to "Protools LE", which is the much older one). In the box there is just a card with an activation code. That is what you register to get your software. Whatever Protools version is current at the time is what you get (which is PT11 and 10). In fact, if you waited to register it when Protools 12 came out, you'd actually get that. As for the Ilok it's not linked to anything. It's a brand new Ilok just as if you bought a new one separately. It has no licenses on it until you sync it to your account and put some on there. When you register the software activation code, they will ask for the name of your Ilok account, and they will send the license for PT11/10 to that account, where you will sync that Ilok and download that license to the Ilok. Also, you will want to register the actual hardware unit. When you register both the hardware and software, you will get the 4 free plugins (there might be instructions via email or something). |

If you register PT10 now, you will get a PT11 complimentary upgrade. So if a retail box includes PT10 you're all good. Some really old boxes however could have older PT version in it, so be sure you get the PT10 or at the very least ask the dealer to have it in writing that you will get PT11 no matter what.
