The REGISTER.txt - Registration Page 1 Updated: March, 1995 _______ ____|__ | (R) --| | |------------------- | ____|__ | Association of | | |_| Shareware |__| o | Professionals -----| | |--------------------- |___|___| Member This is the SHAREWARE Registration information for some P.C Softsmith software. This information is subject to change without notice in future distributions. When you register please clearly state what you want and mark what you are registering. One choice is to simply add your name and address to this, edit it, and print it, circle or highlight the correct selection, then mail the results. You can do the same with email and some cutting and pasting. Written comments and suggestions will always be gratefully accepted. We normally only ship diskettes and receipts, and the base product is normally identical for registered and non-registered versions. This means that you will normally get the same thing if you ask for 'the latest version' when you register. However, there normally are quite a few utilities that may or may not be in the non-registered version, depending on available shipping space and how useful we think they might be to the 'average' user. You will likely have noticed that we have adopted a 'core' and 'extras' distribution format because our most common support contact to September, 1994 includes unusably incomplete distribution sets. The new scheme aims to shrink the default distribution so people will be less inclined to alter it. We also add or change utilities from time to time for a variety of reasons. Our LOCAL distribution is NOT standardised and is very much tailored to individual needs because we can easily work closely to meet specific needs. We can often recommend or include extra stuff that will help you if we have some idea of your specific needs. U.S. Registration Dollar Amount and explanation by program for use on one machine unless otherwise indicated. We do not separate taxes and shipping, but if you use the PsL ordering option please figure on adding $4 for shipping and handling. The REGISTER.txt - Registration Page 2 Hands On remote access basic distribution $50 This assumes one master remote support center or machine and any number of Host machines to be supported. This price is applicable for any portion or all of the current Hands On release. If you have a group licensing proposal, especially for Clean Air regulations and companies with over 100 people, we are willing to consider it. If you ask us at P. C. Softsmith for the latest version, full set of utilities and 'easy use' utilities, we will send them in response to your registration. Don't assume anything, specifically ask and make sure. This is a separate product that we distribute. People often indicate that they would have preferred to look at both choices before they opted for one. TeleShare provides more basic remote control capability than Hands On. Its simpler and cheaper. TeleShare/DOS basic distribution $35 This assumes one master support center or machine and any number of machines to be supported. This price is applicable for any portion or all of the current TeleShare release. If there is a non-communications related portion of $10 the P.C. Softsmith/TeleShare product that is not otherwise described you can register it separately. Please register this option directly with us so we find out exactly what you are up to (and so we save on the registration overhead cost). ALTERNATE ORDERING AND PAYMENT SCHEMES: OPTION 1 - Public (software) Library terms PsL's terms are: "You can order by sending check, cash or money order to P. C. Softsmith or with MC, Visa, Amex, or Discover from the Public (software) Library by calling 1-800-2424-PsL or 713-524-6394 or by FAX to 1-713-524-6398 or by CIS Email to 71355,470. These numbers are for orders only. To insure that you get the latest version, PsL will notify us the day of your order and we will ship the product directly to you. Any questions about the status of the shipment of the order, refunds, registration The REGISTER.txt - Registration Page 3 options, product details, technical support, volume discounts, dealer pricing, site licenses, etc, must be directed to P. C. Softsmith (see below). You can also mail credit card orders to PsL at P.O.Box 35705, Houston, TX, USA, 77235-5705." Please note that the Public (software) Library will normally be selling disks with the latest version, and we will assume that you have the latest version unless you specifically ask for an update and utilities with Hands On. If you can order from PSL and email/mail us at P. C. Softsmith with any technical/support details you will get the best overall service. Note that you cannot talk to us and order from PsL through us; the two procedures are separate. We can discuss upgrades, timing, and so on, with you but the PsL people cannot. Talk to us at P. C. Softsmith but pay them at PsL. Please figure on adding $4 for shipping and handling with the PsL option. If you just want a 'test drive' copy, order from it PsL (and ask them for a copy of their monthly magazine/catalogue). OPTION 2 - via Compuserve You can use Compuserve to register. Hands On is registered as #4509, and you "GO SWREG" to go through the registration process. (TeleShare is #4510). OPTION 3 - P. C.
