- I've seen in the malls and at computer shows people who sell
- shareware or freeware for one to three dollars. Is this legal?
- I was thinking of doing this myself but don't want to step
- on any buddys toe's.
- Is there any way to tell if a piece of software from a
- bulletin board can be sold this way.
- Also could someone define the terms shareware vs. freeware
- or other terms that may apply.
- Thanks.
