TO ALL STSORBIT PLUS USERS
--------------------------
STSORBIT PLUS is now over two years old and is being used throughout the
United States and Canada as well as Europe, the Pacific, and Australia.
The program is free and widely available. The current version is always
posted on my bulletin board systems at (310) 541-7299 and (310) 544-8977.
Thanks for your support and for taking the time to reply.

REGISTRATION AND DONATIONS
--------------------------
Registration of STSORBIT PLUS is optional but strongly encouraged. I've
spent thousands of hours on the program and make it and my bulletin board
systems available as a public service. The modest donation will help
inspire me to continue improving the program and help offset the costs of
mailing, software development and my bulletin board systems. As a bonus for
your registration, I will mail the current version on disk which includes
the Level 3 and Level 4 map databases. Registration requires a minimum
donation of US$10.00 but you are invited to donate whatever you feel the
program is worth! This has turned out to be an expensive "hobby"! Sorry,
I can't accept credit cards or foreign currencies.
Please specify disk size; sorry, because of file sizes, the program is
ONLY available on higher density disks. Please allow 3 to 6 weeks for
delivery -- in case I am out of town.
_____ No disk desired (for users who download the files and/or are
making an additional donation to continue support for STSORBIT
PLUS and the RPV Bulletin Board Systems)
_____ 3-1/2" 720K disk
_____ 3-1/2" 1.44MB disk
_____ 5-1/4" 1.2MB disk
DONATION ENCLOSED: US$____________
ADDITIONAL MAP DATABASE FILES
-----------------------------
Most users will probably be satisfied with the Level 3 map database files
which are available for download and are included with normal registration.
However, for users who plan on using higher zoom factors and wish substan-
tially better map detail, two sets of higher detail map database files are
available: Level 1 (highest detail) and Level 2 (next highest detail). The
higher level map databases will be automatically selected for higher zoom
factors if present. Map drawing times are longer with higher detail map
database files!
REGISTERED USERS may obtain the additional map database files separately
on disk for an additional donation of US$10.00 EACH. Please note that
because of file sizes, ONLY high density disks are available. Files are
supplied in compressed, self-extracting .EXE format.
