DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE

Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it. 
If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to 
register. Individual programs differ on details -- some request registration 
while others require it, some specify a maximum trial period. With 
registration, you get anything from the simple right to continue using the 
software to an updated program with printed manual.

Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the 
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as 
stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like 
commercial authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both 
cases, there are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the 
method of distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy
and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific 
group. For example, some authors require written permission before a 
commercial disk vendor may copy their Shareware.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find 
software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's commercial or 
Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you 
can try before you buy.  And because the overhead is low, prices are low 
also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use 
the product, you don't pay for it.
