i agree with samuel.  sometimes i really want to register some of the
shareware programs, but when i look at some of the prices above $50, i
turn tail and run quickly.  in this case, i find something that is
cheaper.  i understand that authors of shareware don't receive a lot of
registrations, but jacking up the price is going to reduce that number
even more.  i think more people would register if they look at the price
and can afford it, and thinks that the program is worth it.
so let's keep the price under $40 please!
