Please, PLEASE, understand that what was posted was version 0.9 of STuffer!!!

Version 1.0 (which I use all the time) does in fact work with Thunder.
In fact I only know of a couple of DAs that don't run within STuffer 1.0,
that being NEWWORD, and Juggler, and my own DC Deskey.

The idea behind releasing version 0.9 was to develop interest and solicit a
SHAREWARE contribution.  Version 0.9 is not nearly as compatible as the
SHAREWARE version 1.0, and we do not claim it to be.  If you are interested
in the way it looks and feels, and you have confidence in our abilities, then
we ask you to send a contribution of whatever you feel the final version is
worth to you.

I think our support of DC Formatter over the past 2 1/2 years is evident that
we are serious about providing top support of our programs.  Remember,
SHAREWARE only works if you make it work.  It also takes an act of *FAITH*
which should not be very difficult for you.

To say version 0.9 is not as compatible as MultiDesk is not fair, since
MultiDesk is a finished release product.  And even MultiDesk has had quite
a few updates since the original release.

What I can say is that we offer one *FREE* upgrade of software to *ALL* our
contributors, and send along a coupon which they can redeem for the newest
version *whenever* they want a new version!!  And the coupon has no expiration,
so they can wait for version 2.0 before redeeming it!  And we will notify them
by mail of a new release.

If you ask me, this is much more 'bang for the buck' than you can get from
*ANY* commercial software producer.  And we are just asking for whatever the
software is worth to you.

We have gotten from $5 to $35 for our programs, and offer the same level of
support to both customers.

If you feel that you have gotten your money's worth in MultiDesk, then good
for you, but understand you arre not comparing it to DC STuffer v1.0!!!
