- INTRODUCTION
- ------------
-
- This diskette contains DOS/NT(tm) shareware version 1.02 for
- PC/XT/AT/AT386/AT486 computers. This is the first release in an ongoing
- project to bring new technology to DOS compatible operating systems. Look
- for future releases that will expand DOS technology.
-
- DOS/NT is available for either general use or as an embedded operating
- system. As an embedded operating system, DOS/NT provides you with
- development platform that brings you to market in a timely fashion. Use
- this copy as a means of evaluating this new technology for your products.
-
- DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE
- -----------------------
-
- Shareware distribution gives you a chance to try software before buying
- it. If you try DOS/NT and continue using it, you are expected to register.
-
- Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. The Shareware
- system makes fitting your needs easier, because you can try DOS/NT before
- you buy it.
-
- DOS/NT FEES
- -----------
-
- DOS/NT is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge, with the
- exception of media and duplication fees, 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 DOS/NT and continue to use DOS/NT after a
- reasonable trial period, you must make a registration payment of $20.00
- to Networks Software Systems, Inc. The $20.00 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. Just as a
- book cannot be read by two different persons at the same time.
-
- Commercial users of DOS/NT must register and pay for their copies of
- DOS/NT within 30 days of first use or their license is withdrawn.
- Site-License arrangements may be made by contacting Networks Software
- Systems, Inc.
-
- Embedded users of DOS/NT must register and pay for their copies of
- DOS/NT within 30 days of first use or their license is withdrawn. Additional
- licenses must be purchased for each embedded system distributed using
- DOS/NT. Arrangements may be made by contacting Networks Software
- Systems, Inc.
-
- Anyone distributing DOS/NT for any kind of remuneration must first contact
- Networks Software Systems, Inc. at the address below for authorization.
-
- You are encouraged to pass a copy of DOS/NT along to your friends for
