- Uno is a shareware information manager. This means that you only pay
- for it if you decide to continue using it. If you don't think that it
- is worth the asking price, delete the program, or better yet give it
- to someone who might find it useful. However if you do decide to keep
- Uno after a 2 week trial period, please send $20 (see REGISTRATION
- FORM on next page) to:
-
- Useful Software
- 340 Dale Crescent
- Waterloo, Ontario
- Canada, N2J 3Y3
-
- The shareware fee pays for unlimited use of Uno by a single person.
- You are allowed (and encouraged) to give away copies of Uno with the
- understanding that each person receiving a copy is under the same
- obligation as you are to send in the shareware fee if they decide to
- keep it. You can upload THIS VERSION ONLY of Uno to other computer
- systems, either free or commercial, as long as this archive remains
- intact, with the copyright and shareware notices unchanged.
-
- Useful Notes can be installed on LANS. In such situations I ask only
- that the LAN Administrator estimate the maximum number of people that
- will be making "simultaneous" use of Uno and pay the shareware fee
- based on that estimate. I do not expect that the limit be closely
- monitored or enforced (I appreciate how much trouble that would be),
- but I do expect that the estimate will be revised (and additional fees
- paid) should a substantial increase in the number of nodes on the LAN
- and Uno usage occur.
-
- No guarantee is made as to the functionality of this software; however
- it has been tested quite thoroughly by a large number of people. If
- it doesn't do what you want, don't keep it and send no money.
-
- Please support the shareware concept. Shareware means useful programs
- at a fraction of the cost you might pay for them commercially. You
- can try-before-you-buy, and you are not subjected to copy protection
- or other atrocities that many software vendors inflict on their
- customers. Software updates can also be distributed much faster than
- is possible through normal channels.
-
- Any questions, suggestions, or bug reports, can be mailed to the above
- address. Enjoy.
