SHAREWARE - "USER SUPPORTED" SOFTWARE
-------------------------------------
Shareware, sometimes called "user supported" software, is a distribution
method, not a type of software. It is "try before you buy" software.
The essence of user supported software is to provide computer users with
quality software without high prices, and yet provide incentive for
programmers to continue to develop new products.
Copyright laws apply to shareware and commercial software alike.
Shareware authors, however, grant you limited rights to copy and
distribute the software. These rights vary with different authors and
programs, but allow you a chance to try the software before buying it.
The shareware concept depends on the support of its users. After a
specified trial period, if you decide to keep using a shareware program,
you are expected to send in the requested payment to register with the
author. These funds reward the authors for their valuable work, and
fuels their future endeavors - support, new programs, new and better
features. With shareware, you get the ultimate money-back guarantee -
if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.
Wasco Technical Software has made this edition of ALLY available as
shareware. The shareware edition is fully functional, but displays a
registration reminder screen. See the accompanying VENDINFO.DIZ file
for ALLY's Trial Use License and Limited Distribution license.
