Appendix A 23
-1- DOS ColorView 2.1
ColorView for DOS is distributed as SHAREWARE. Please read the following
information before using it:
SHAREWARE
ColorView is a shareware product, it is not free. Shareware
distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it. If
you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to
register. With your registration of ColorView for DOS Version 2.1, you
will receive a diskette with the latest version of the software and
documentation.
Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software,
and Millennium Technologies Corporation retains all rights, with a few
specific exceptions as stated below. You are specifically granted the
right to copy and distribute the ColorView for DOS package, complete
and unmodified, as described in the Disclaimer-Agreement section below.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. The
Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you can try it
before you buy it. And because the overhead is low, prices are low.
Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the
product, you don't pay for it.
ASP OMBUDSMAN STATEMENT
Millennium Technologies Corporation is a member of the Association of
Shareware Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware
principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-related
problem with an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be
able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute or problem
with an ASP member, but does not provide technical support for members'
products. Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon,
MI 49442 or send a CompuServe message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman
70007,3536.

DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of ColorView must accept this disclaimer of warranty:
"ColorView is supplied as is. Millennium Technologies Corporation disclaims
all warranties, expressed or implied, including, without limitation, the
warranties of merchantability and of fitness for any purpose. Millennium
Technologies Corporation assumes no liability for damages, direct or
consequential, which may result from the use of ColorView."
ColorView 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 ColorView and continue to use ColorView after a
reasonable trial period, you must make a registration payment of $29.95
to Millennium Technologies Corporation (please use the registration form
below). The $29.95 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. It is just like a book which cannot be read by two
different people at the same time.
Commercial users of ColorView must register and pay for their copies of
ColorView within 30 days of first use or their license is withdrawn.
Site-License arrangements may be made by contacting Millennium
Technologies Corporation.
Anyone distributing ColorView for any kind of remuneration must first
contact Millennium Technologies Corporation at the address below for
authorization. Millennium Technologies Corporation should be advised
so that the distributor can be kept up-to-date with the latest version
of ColorView for DOS.
Disk Vendors, Shareware Distributors and BBS(s) may charge a nominal fee
for distribution of the program. The recipient of ColorView must be
informed, in advance, that the fee paid to acquire ColorView does not
relieve the recipient from paying the Registration Fee for ColorView
if the recipient uses ColorView.
You are encouraged to pass a copy of ColorView along to your friends for
evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if they find
that they can use it. All registered users will receive a copy of the
latest version of the ColorView system.

Subsequent versions of ColorView for DOS will be made available to
