- 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 July, 1991):
-
- LiteSPM(tm) Serial Port Monitor
- LiteComm(tm) Communications ToolBox
-
- 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 advantage 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.
