- Why Register? Copyright laws apply to both Shareware
- ------------- and commercial software, and the
- copyright holder retains all rights.
- 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.
-
- Deduction 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 Deduction and
- continue to use Deduction after a
- reasonable trial period, you must make a
- registration payment to Scalzi SoftWorks. The
- 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.
-
- You are encouraged to pass a copy of
- Deduction along to your friends for
- evaluation. Please encourage them to
- register their copy if they find that
- they can use it.
