=========
|
| "Shareware" is a term used to describe a system for distribution
| of software. Under the shareware concept, software may be freely
| copied and passed along to others, or distributed through bulletin
| board systems, etc.
|
| As a recipient of a shareware program, you may use the software
| for a short trial period to determine if it meets your needs. If
| it does, you pay the registration fee. By paying the fee, you are
| granted the right to retain the software for your use. If the
| software is not suitable, then you may discard it.
|
| The shareware system provides substantial benefits the computing
| community (of which YOU are a member):
|
| 1) You get to try out the software BEFORE you buy it so you know
| exactly what you're buying.
|
| 2) Shareware is substantially less expensive than most commercial
| programs. You don't pay for costly marketing programs and
| fancy packaging.
|
| 3) You get access to a MUCH broader base of available programs.
| Thousands of excellent programs have been written by expert
| programmers who would never consider marketing commercially.
| Through the concept of shareware, these people make their
| programs available to the community. Usually, all they ask in
| return is a small fee to reward them for the time and effort
| they've put into the program.
|
| The system is based entirely on the honor system, and generally
| works quite well. (Most people are honest and wouldn't violate
| the trust placed in them by the author of the software.)
|
| Shareware is NOT free software - the author counts on your integrity.
| Please register using the form the end of this manual.
|
| You are encouraged to copy this software and pass it along to
| others who may be interested in using it.
|
| This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware
| Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware
| principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware
| related problem with an ASP member by contacting the member directly,
| ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a
| dispute or problem with an
| ASP member, but does not
| provide technical support ---------
| for members' products. ------|-- | (tm)

| | ------======>>>>>> Utility Pak Registration <<<<<<=====------ | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| UPAK is a copyright program distributed on a "Shareware" basis, |
| that is, it may be freely distributed for TRIAL use. This gives you |
| the benefit of being able to try it out BEFORE you buy. If you don't |
| find it useful, simply destroy or give away your copy and accept my |
| thanks for giving it a shot. |
| |
| If, however, you find it beneficial and wish to continue using it, |
| please register it by completing the bottom of this form and sending |
| the appropriate fee. This will give you a nicely printed manual with |
| more detailed information, an update of the program including any new |
| features, and a clear conscience whenever you use the program. If |
| you believe in the concept of shareware, it will also give you the |
| nice feeling that comes from knowing that you are backing up your |
| beliefs and are helping to encourage more development of this type |
| of distribution. |
| |
| *** BONUS! *** Your registration will also get you an Introductory |
| membership to Compuserve Information Service. If you're not |
| familiar with CIS, it's the world's largest online network with games, |
| business information, program libraries, and much, much more. You |

| of services (including electronic mail direct to us)! Your kit |
| includes a User Id, Password and a $15.00 credit! This offer is |
| courtesy of the ASP and CIS. |
| |
| The registration is a very low price, but it helps me to make a |
| living and to continue to maintain and improve the program. |
| If you do not register, but continue to benefit from the use of my |
| program, you are clearly violating the terms of my copyright, and |
| I will not be amused. |
| |
