-
- The ARCHIVE TRACKER package cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others.

- literature which describes our products as "FREE SOFTWARE". Shareware is
- "Try-Before-You-Buy" software, it is not free.

- Barrentine. If the version you have is over twelve (12) months old, please

-
- Vendor Update Program:
- ----------------------
-
- Most non-ASP vendors have standard procedures for acquiring new files.
- They get them from other vendors, BBSs, etc. Most authors cannot afford
- to mail disks to hundreds (perhaps thousands) of vendors. However, some
- vendors prefer to obtain programs directly from the authors. If you would
- like to obtain programs directly from us, automatically, then please help
- us to cover the cost.
-
- If you are NOT an ASP Approved Vendor (in good standing), but you would
- still like to receive automatic updates directly from us, then please take
- advantage of our Vendor Update Program. Under this program you can
- receive updates for an entire year for only $10 per program (this helps to
- offset our costs).
-
- To receive updates, simply send us a letter with your name, company name,
- mailing address, the name of the person we should contact (such as your
- disk librarian), the program (or programs) for which you would like to
- receive updates, and a check or money order for $10 for each program
- (Countries outside of North America please add an additional $10 per
- program). Payment in U.S. funds drawn on a U.S. bank only please.
- The Vendor Update Program is available for the following products (as of
- December, 1993:
-
- TROOP TRACKER
- PACK TRACKER
- MERIT BADGE TRACKER
- TRAINING TRACKER
- SHIP TRACKER
- PARTY TRACKER
- GS TROOP TRACKER
- ARCHIVE TRACKER
-
- All vendors participating in our Vendor Update Program will automatically
- receive any NEW programs which we may release while their Vendor Update
- Program is in effect.
-
- NOTE: ASP Associate Members automatically receive free updates and do not
- need to apply for the Vendor Update Program. This is yet another advan-
- tage to being an ASP Associate Member.
-
- The Vendor Update Program is only intended to help us cover our expenses
- in those cases where a vendor desires to obtain the program directly from
- us. If you have other standard ways to obtain programs, then you may
- prefer not to use our Vendor Update Program.
