Hi Net,
I deplore Jason Haines' ineloquence in posting but am interested
in enquiring about the nature of so called 'Crippleware'
My understanding is that this is a form of shareware with features
unactivated until the user pays. Isn't this a form of commercialism
on the Net.
I get the feeling that a lot of the recent (last 3 months) postings to
c.m.b have been of this format.
What's wrong with Freeware/Happiware/Beerware?
Surely that is the style of posting that should be coming out of c.m.b
Just my opinions...
