What _wasn't_ quoted from the documentation was:


      This  document  and its respective files are a  complete  working 
      limited evaluation  version of the EMSimulator. All functions are 
-->   implemented with the exception that simulated Expanded memory can 
-->   not be larger than 256K in size.  Users are allowed to distribute 
      this  version  freely as long as it is not modified in  any  way. 
      Anyone   who  finds  the EMSimulator  useful  are  encouraged  to 
      purchase   the   complete   package   which   included    printed 
      documentation and an unrestricted version, which will allow up to 
      8 megabytes of extended memory to be used as expanded memory, for 
      only $49.95.

This is from the USENET distribution of the program.  It is what we
are calling "crippleware."
