Dear HP-41 Programmers:

As you may know, I have written a complete MCODE development system
for the HP-41 that includes a disassembler, assembler, linker, HP-IL 
communications utility and an MCODE emulator that can run the HP-41's
operating system ROM's.  This system runs on PC/compatibles.  Release 3 
with printed manual is available from me for $55 and is not shareware.

With the HP-41 officially discontinued, I have not made many sales
although there are still people actively developing MCODE.  There
must be hundreds of people that have tried MCODE and would be
interested in at least playing with my emulator, but are not going
to pay first.

After much consideration, I have decided to make an earlier
version, Release 2, available as shareware.  The primary difference
is that the emulator does not have the more powerful features such
as halfnut character set, automatic assembly for editing ROMs, the
ability to execute mnemonics, mouse support, etc.

To get Release 2 send self-addressed stamped floppy mailer with a
formatted floppy (either size), or send $5.

I will try to get Release 2 loaded onto BBS systems and anonymous
FTP when I find the appropriate site.  You may distribute Release
2 freely and that includes putting on your favorite BBS or FTP.

Also I have a limited number of printed manuals available for $15.

If you like Release 2, a $25 registration fee would be greatly
appreciated and is applicable to the purchase of Release 3.  The
registration fee is to support my shareware effort and make me more
likely to release other stuff in the future.

The $5 for disk and $15 for manual is my cost for materials and
shipping and is separate from the registration fee.
