FROM A REGISTERED USER (SITE LICENSE):
We received a superb grading program in yesterday's mail and
I wanted to let you know immediately how pleased we are with
it. Not only are we pleased with the program, but also with
the many extras that come with it! We had no idea that MTG
Plus is included -- also manuals (very nice professionally
done manuals!), etc. Thank you very much for these extras;
the staff felt like we had Christmas today. We have been
waiting anxiously for the program and it has far surpassed
our expectations. I already have given out copies of the
shareware version to two staff members who wanted to send it
off to friends immediately. We are absolutely thrilled with
it!
