- Shareware Registration
-
- RIO is distributed as a shareware program. You're encouraged to try
- the program prior to purchase, and to give copies to your friends and
- colleagues who you think may find it useful. However, the software is
- not free; if you do decide to use RIO on a regular basis, please send
- in the registration form. In doing so, you'll help further the
- development of this software, and gain the benefits of registration,
- including the legal right to continue using the software on your
- machine.
-
- The cost of registration is $25. Registered users will receive a disk
- containing:
-
- * The latest version of RIO.EXE, RIO-TSR.EXE, and RIO.DOC
-
- * A scaled down version of RIO-TSR that saves about 30K when resident,
- but logs fewer types of interrupts
-
- * Several public domain text files describing in detail the DOS and
- Novell interrupts
-
- If/when more than a half dozen orders are received, you'll also receive
- a printed booklet with RIO's documentation.
-
- The $25 registration fee will license one copy for use on any one
- computer at any one time. Quantity purchases/site licenses negotiable.

- Support
-
- Rock will answer any questions about its products from registered
- users, or even from unregistered users who are thinking about
- registering.
-
- Writing via U.S. mail, or better yet, if you have a telephone modem,
- through electronic communication, is the vastly preferred method of
- contact (see Contacting Rock).
-
- We will provide telephone support (expect returned calls to be placed
- collect), but we ask that requests for telephone support be kept to a
- minimum. Rock may, at its discretion, limit total telephone support to
- 30 minutes per registered user.
-
- The software is sold on an "as is" basis, as described in the Limited
- Warranty section below, but we will try to correct any serious bugs.
- Updates are available free through Rock's BBS. Registered users order
- an update disk through the mail for $5. If we are unable to correct a
- bug to your satisfaction, we will refund the purchase price up to 90
- days from the date of purchase.

-
- E-Mail (electronic mail) is the preferred method of communication.

- Our current mailing address is:

-
- For information, or as a *last resort* for support, our current phone
- number is (313) 971-9123. If you reach our answering machine and would
- like a long distance call-back, it will be placed collect from Rock
- Systems. If you don't get through to us, we've probably gotten a new
- number, in which case we'll get an 800 number to give our current
- locale. Dial 800 Info at 1-800-555-1212, and ask for "Rock", and if
- they don't have that, "Rock Systems, Inc.", and if they don't have
- that, "Rock Argyropoulos"! (One of the few advantages of having such a
- long last name is that I take confidence in its uniqueness). The
- address above will hopefully remain constant for a long while to come.
