There is a mail-order company in W. Germany that is producing
illegal copies of the Beckemeyer Development Tools MT C-Shell.

They are re-printing the manuals and producing "fake" versions
of the software package, complete with fake serial numbers.

Unfornunately, they are also selling the product at more than
double it US retail price, over $250 US!   BDT cannot register
the pirated, illegal copies, so the poor purchaser of these
"imatation" Mt C-Shell's loses.

So beware of Mail order companies selling Mt C-Shell in W. Germany.
These are not the real thing!!

If you have a question or suspision about a particular mail-order
company, please contact me.
