True!

|  Do you Usenet folks feel that the posting of our demos of our products here
|  is a worthwhile endevour, or should we stop?

I personally appreciate seeing demo versions come through the net!  It
lets me comfortably compare.

|  Are Usenet folks REALLY care all that much if a commercial endorsement is
|  made in the demo??

As long as the final commercial product does not follow the same path,
I don't mind too much.  As for Usenet rules...

|  (and hell, why should Compuserve, GEnie and BIX get all the good stuff
|  anyways?????)

True again.  But do they really get all the good stuff?

Please folks, I do not want to restart the shareware controvery that's
going on already in another newsgroup.
