Except for users elsewhere. I've got copies of bits of shareware marked
"... $20 drawn on a US bank account payable to ..." or somesuch. So it
ISN'T just a case of writing a cheque and popping it in the post.
   I'm inclined to just work out the equivalent in pounds sterling, write
a British cheque for this, and send this instead. How would this go down?
Would a US bank like it?
