Oh, you probably do [need it] now, Bj�rge! :-)
Seriously, I think the jury is telling me pretty clearly that they want
demos, in the form of "nagware." Currently we have "10 tables for 10
days" function-limited demos (because, practically, time-limits of any
sort are easily bypassed by themselves).
With "over 2,000 licensees at over 200 companies in over 20 countries,"
this product being our primary means of making a living(!) -- naturally
we want to do what customers want. And it has been enormously
interesting, just in the past few days, to ... "ask."
If ever there was a succint expression of "what is the power of the
World Wide(!) Web" ... this is it. Thanks!
