Regarding the companys who sell shareware/freeware diskettes for
$5-$10.

I am the author of PC-VT which is distributed as User Supported
Software (aka shareware). My program is the library of about half
dozen companys who sell it for a small handling fee.

These companies do me a service. I cannot afford to advertise
nationally as they do. I have received many support payments
directly traceable to these companies.

As some say "cut out the middleman", well here it helps.
