The QuickBBS Group, Inc. P.O. Box 621735 Orlando, FL 32862-1735 (407) 228-9096 / Voice Mail Here are the facts about registration of QuickBBS from The QuickBBS Group, Inc. 1. Registration is required if you are going to use the products sold by The QuickBBS Group. This includes all versions of QuickBBS released after November 1, 1989. If you registered with Adam Hudson to use any of his versions (1.0x, 2.03, 2.04, etc.) then you may continue to use those versions as long as you wish. As I understand it, Mr. Hudson's license granted permission to use his software forever, but please understand that when Adam sold QuickBBS, he relinquished all rights to future registrations and transferred all rights to our company, The QuickBBS Group, Inc. 2. A license from Mr. Hudson to use his products is NOT a license to use the products sold by The QuickBBS Group, Inc. 3. A single user license is available at the introductory price of $45.00US, this license grants the Sysop to use QuickBBS version 2.x as released by The QuickBBS Group, Inc. 4. Any person who registered an earlier version of QuickBBS (2.04 and before) will be given a credit of the full registration amount (up to $25.00US) when they register a new version of QuickBBS available from The QuickBBS Group, Inc. 5. The QuickBBS Group, Inc. uses a security key system on QuickBBS. This key will allow the operation of any QuickBBS program version 2.50 (beta) and above. The key is REQUIRED for the operation of a Beta version. A general release version of QuickBBS (starting with version 2.60) will allow evaluation without a key. This is to allow the Sysop time to determine if they choose to purchase the product and if it meets their needs. This is consistent with the philosophy of Shareware distribution. There is no difference between QuickBBS running in evaluation mode or in registered mode, except that the Registered mode will identify it's self as Registered to: "Sysop Name" to it's callers and will show [REGISTERED] on the tear line of echo mail. The evaluation mode says nothing on login during the evaluation period, and shows [EVALUATION] on the tear line. QuickBBS is not and never will be "cripple-ware". 6. The registration fee will provide for use of ALL release 2.xx versions, there will never be an additional fee charged for new minor releases. There may be a nominal charge for major releases to help defray development costs. Major releases will also provide significant enhancements to the program. 7. Printed documentation is available after 15 Feb 1990, by mail from the QuickBBS Group, the charge is $15.00US and includes shipping. The documentation is typeset and includes a 360K diskette with the current release version and a hard cover binder. If you wish the software in another format please state your required type of media and include $5.00 for the media and special handling. We support all IBM standard formats through 1.44Mb 3.5" diskettes. If you have any questions, or would like to register, please send them to us at the following address: The QuickBBS Group, Inc. P.O.
