- DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE
-
- Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before
- buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it,
- you are expected to register. Individual programs differ on
- details -- some request registration while others require it, some
- specify a maximum trial period. With registration, you get
- anything from the simple right to continue using the software to
- an updated program with printed manual.
-
- Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software,
- and the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific
- exceptions as stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished
- programmers, just like commercial authors, and the programs are of
- comparable quality. (In both cases, there are good programs and
- bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of distribution.
- The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
- the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For
- example, some authors require written permission before a
- commercial disk vendor may copy their Shareware.
-
- Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You
- should find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether
- it's commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting
- your needs easier, because you can try before you buy. And because
- the overhead is low, prices are low also. Shareware has the
- ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you
- don't pay for it.

-
- 'The Psychedelic ScreenSaver Collection' is a "shareware program"
- and is provided at no charge to the user for evaluation. Feel
- free to share it with your friends, but please do not give it away
- altered or as part of another system. The essence of "user-
- supported" software is to provide personal computer users with
- quality software without high prices, and yet to provide incentive
- for programmers to continue to develop new products. If you find
- this program useful and find that you are using 'The Psychedelic
- ScreenSaver Collection' and continue to use 'The Psychedelic
- ScreenSaver Collection' after a reasonable trial period, you must
- make a registration payment of $20 to NorthStar Solutions. The $20
- registration fee will license one copy for use on any one computer
- at any one time. You must treat this software just like a book.
- An example is that this software may be used by any number of
- people and may be freely moved from one computer location to
- another, so long as there is no possibility of it being used at
- one location while it's being used at another. Just as a book
- cannot be read by two different persons at the same time.
-
- Commercial users of 'The Psychedelic ScreenSaver Collection' must
- register and pay for their copies of 'The Psychedelic ScreenSaver
- Collection' within 30 days of first use or their license is
- withdrawn.
