- ECHO cannot keep up with the volume. In addition, we can provide better assistance

- ECHO NATIONAL SOFTWARE LABS is dedicated to bringing you the best public domain
- ECHO and Shareware programs available. A great deal of time and effort goes into
- ECHO the acquisition, selection and testing of programs. Our goal is to offer you
- ECHO the best and newest programs in each category.
- ECHO
- ECHO The fee we charge for distributing the programs in the NSL Library covers the
- ECHO cost of our efforts. The program authors do not receive any part of that fee.
- ECHO
- ECHO SHAREWARE is software which is provided to you to "try before you buy." It is
- ECHO not free software. Shareware authors request registration fees from those who
- ECHO try their programs and decide they will continue to use the programs. Because
- ECHO shareware authors do not have to pay the high cost of advertising, the fees
- ECHO they charge for registration are modest compared to the prices you would pay
- ECHO for comparable programs marketed commercially. Shareware is a real bargain.
- ECHO
- ECHO Shareware authors deserve to be compensated for the hard work they put into
- ECHO the programs you benefit from. In many cases your registration fee provides you
- ECHO with extras like printed manuals, telephone support, update service, etc. In
- ECHO addition, only your support can maintain the Shareware concept as a viable
- ECHO alternative to paying high prices for commercial software.
