If you mean "anonymous ftp", then I whole-heartedly agree that that is
a superior method to distributing demos. 

Another idea is to for Claris to solicit people to submit their name
and e-mail address and form a "potential customer" mailing list.  Then
Claris can e-mail the BinHex files *directly* to the interested people.
