In case you don't know, or haven't used Red Ryder much, it says that you can
use Red Ryder for 30 days, then decide if you wish to use the software, in
which case you are asked to send money for documentation and registration.
Otherwise, he asks that you destroy it, or pass it on to someone else.

It would seem to me that, Data Pacific is doing him a favor by providing a
larger distribution base.  It would also seem that they are not *ripping him
off* as I have inferred from your message.  They seem to be doing what any
other person might do, passing on the software (among other software which was
not mentioned by name).

Flame on

It seems that you are looking to start something where nothing is.  If you
truly care about Mr. Red Ryder losing his fair share, then take your
grievance to him.  Not by posting an insuating letter on the net.
I am not affiliated with Data Pacific or David Small, but I do not appreciate
someone who is looking for an argument.  Both companies are doing the ST
community a favor.

Flame off
