This is odd because I just received in the mail Beagle Bros. Fall/Winter
1989 catalog and I QUOTE FROM PAGE 22:

FREE SOFTWARE
	If you have received a Beagle Bros catalog in the past, you
might be wondering what happened to all the old Beagle Bros utility
programs, like DOS Boss and Silicon Salad.  They are not in this
catalog, but they are all still alive and well on Pro-Beagle -- the
Beagle Bros bulletin board.  All you need is a modem and a
communications program (see pages 14 and 19 for some great ones) and you
can have them for free!  There are some real classics in this
collection:
	Alpha Plot	Flex Type
	Beagle Bag	Font Mechanic
	Beagle Basic	Frame-Up
	DOS Boss	Pro-Byter
	Big U		Pronto DOS
	D Code		Shape Mechanic
	Double Take	Silicon Salad
	Extra K		Tip Disk #1
	Fat Cat		Utility City

A few of these programs are not on Pro-Beagle yet.  As the last copies
in stock are sold, we are making them available for the asking.  If you
must have one of these titles right now, and it's not on Pro-Beagle,
you could always buy it!  They are selling at 50% off.

Like we said, these programs are free.  You are welcome to use them as
much as you want -- even share them with your friends.  But please don't
give away any programs other than those listed here.

Perhaps this last paragraph will clarify the position of the Beagle !!
