          Thank you Brian, for pointing out where the misunderstanding was. I
had not thought to mention that I am not in fact *selling* the software, but
giving it away. The payment would be for the drive and the disks that the
software is on.  I can understand that you (anybody) would be disturbed by
the idea of selling what one has gotten for free. I certainly would be too.
That would be a pretty low level for anyone to sink to, and I'm glad that I'm
able to clear the air here. I apologize to those who were (or still are)
offended.
- thanks
