I don't know George either, and I was struck two ways about the above post.

1) George is doing us a favor by making a favorable comparison.
2) We (DCS) are all students trying to make this work, and are hurt by the
   possibility that 'borrowed' is not.

I have never known to be subtle, that is part of my short-comings, many of
which make me human.  I apologize.

Actually that was purely unintentional.  I am used to writing documentation
and we always write it aimed that you are reading it.

I doubt you could prove anything I said was slanderous or libelous, since I
purely spoke from the context of his statements.

We do indeed include a special surprise gift in each order.

Listen, we are not a big corporation, with big money-wads backing us up.
Instead, we are all *students* that have reinvested *all* of our shareware
contributions back into Double Click Software to make the company grow and
stand on its own 'two (actually 8 :-) feet.'  We have spent long hard hours
hoping that our 'dream' could become a reality.

When we see posts which allude to doing us harm, we get upset.  I'm sure if we
stuck as a shareware only company that people would be happier, but we can't
see doing that for everything.  We have attempted to give people a package
that is high in quality and user usable programs.  Because we know that not
everyone is rich, but everyone could benefit by our products.  That is part
of our 'philosophy.'  After all we are students, and part of the reason we
wrote what we did is because we can't afford what is out there, so we wrote it.

We are not going to 'get' anyone.
We have a list of *every* person that has purchased DC Utilities, since it has
only been released at the Dallas WOA show (pending our receiving the manuals
it will be in distribution), so, in another subtle attempt, I was trying to
discern whether he did 'borrow' it, or perhaps found it in some other way than
thru a legitimate owner.  If it is thru someone who we have listed, then we
