- Well... I try not to do this. If another author does, that's a
- problem of his. If I ever stop distributing my .TPU's, I'll probably just
- release source to some source newsgroup.

- As for portability... Now that BP7 is out, I obviously have to upgrade
- to keep my product current. If I don't, I'll lose users and registrations, so
- it is obviously in my best interests to upgrade. If another shareware author
- wants to make money, he/she will do the same.
