Just out of curiosity, I sent in a shareware donation for my copy of
the Desk Accessory Mover to Donald Brown, the guy also responsible for
the Mock DA's. In the "newsletter" that accompanied my registration
certificate, Brown made it clear that the versions strewn about on
various bulletin boards and other electronic distribution media were,
in fact, pre-release versions which had leaked out accidentally, and
that the Mock accessories were not being distributed as shareware,
but were being sold for the very reasonable fee of $25. (How's that
for a run-on sentence?) Anyway, it is certainly possible to find
these DA floating around, but I'll leave that dilemma to the conscience
of the individual and part by repeating the address by which the
Mock stuff can be obtained:
