There is no procedure for getting a run-time version of Windows 3.0. There is
no run-time version of Windows 3.0. To use a program that runs under Windows 3.0
you must have the real, full version of Windows 3.0. I personally never saw the
use of a run-time version. After all if you want to run a program that works
under DOS, you don't a run-time version of DOS, do you? No! If you want to run
some software that works with Windows, you should buy Windows.

The other day I bought a program that runs under Windows 3.0. And since there
was no run-time version, they included an upgrate form for Windows 3.0. So it
I didn't have Windows 3.0, I could get it for only $50.00.
