- you will evaluate the contenders, optionally giving each a weight. Then you

- Shareware is a means of distributing software. Under the shareware concept,
- software may be freely copied and passed along to others, or distributed
- through bulletin board systems or national networks.
-
- 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 the software is not
- suitable, then you can discard it. If you decide to use it, you should
- register it. As of May 1, 1990, all Cascoly games will cost $20 each to
- register. When you register you will receive the latest copy of the program,
- plus one or more similar shareware programs. Registration also entitles you
- to online support via CompuServe. Send email to Cascoly Software,
- CompuServe number 76703,3046. (We will also answer mail from registered
- users.)
-
- As an additional benefit, registration entitles you to a free introductory
- account on CompuServe. (Details will be sent when you register.)
-
- Cascoly Software is 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. Please write to
- the ASP Ombudsman at P.O. Box 5786, Bellevue, WA 98006 or send a Compuserve
- message via easyplex to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536 .
