This game is shareware.  You may freely try it.  If you like it or find it
useful, then you must register with MVP Software.  To "register" a shareware
game means to purchase it directly from the developer.  (Shareware games are
evaluation versions only, which means you have the right to try them, but
after trying them you must either register them with the author or delete them
from your system.  It is unlikely that anyone will check up on you, so
shareware works because of the honesty of users.)  When you register you will
receive MVP Backgammon Deluxe for Windows, which includes all of the following
additional features:

   * 3 skill levels, including the tough expert "fiona" neural net
     system.
   * Single game and tournament match play.
   * 3 different board and stone graphics styles.
   * 3 different screen sizes for full-screen graphics in 640x480,
     800x600, and 1024x768 modes.
   * Lots more music and sound effects, including lots of cool
     digitized speech not in this shareware version.
   * 47-page printed manual with tips and hints from the author.
