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.
DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of the MEDshare#1 system must accept this disclaimer of
warranty: "The MEDshare#1 system is supplied as is. The author
disclaims all warranties, expressed or implied, including,
without limitation, the warranties of merchantability and of
fitness for any purpose. The author assumes no liability for
damages, direct or consequential, which may result from the use
of the MEDshare#1 system.
The MEDshare#1 system is a set of "shareware programs" that work
together to provide a full feature Medical Office Management
system and is provided at no charge to the user for evaluation.
Feel free to share it with your friends, but please do not give
it away altered or as part of another system. The essence of
"user-supported" software is to provide personal computer users
with quality software without high prices, and yet to provide
incentive for programmers to continue to develop new products.
If you find this system of programs useful and find that you are
using the MEDshare#1 system and continue to use the MEDshare#1
system after a reasonable trial period, you must make the
required registration fee payments for the level of the system
you are using. The payment of these registration fee('s) is to
MEDshare, Inc.. The payment of the required registration fee(s)
will license one copy for use on any one computer at any one
time. You must treat this software just like a book. An example
is that this software may be used by any number of people and may
be freely moved from one computer location to another, so long as
there is no possibility of it being used at one location while
it's being used at another. Just as a book cannot be read by two
different persons at the same time.

(Note: The MEDshare#1 system requires a valid user registration
number to be entered into each program module before it can be
removed from the 'UN-REGISTERED' mode. Each registration number
is valid only for that program module for that specific practice
name and address for the service provider level of usage
requested. The MEDshare#1 program module is limited to 100
patients until registered, Collect will only provide aging for
the first 100 patients until registered, and each insurance form
print module will print a 'UN-REGISTERED' message in the practice
name block of the insurance form until registered. EACH NEW
RELEASE OF THE MEDSHARE#1 SYSTEM WILL REQUIRE NEW USER
REGISTRATION NUMBERS. Maintaining your annual maintenance fee
will provide you with free upgrades as they become available.)
The MEDshare#1 system is licensed to a practice name at a
specific practice address. Additional sites using the same
practice name must register their own use of the MEDshare#1
system. Discounts are available for multiple site practices for
each additional site. There is no 'Commercial' or 'Site-License'
offered for the MEDshare#1 system.
Anyone distributing the MEDshare#1 system for any kind of
remuneration must first contact MEDshare, Inc. at the address
below for authorization. This authorization will be
automatically granted to distributors recognized by the (ASP) as
adhering to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and such
distributors may begin offering the MEDshare#1 system immediately
(However MEDshare, Inc. must still be advised so that the
distributor can be kept up-to-date with the latest version of
the MEDshare#1 system.).
You are encouraged to pass a copy of the MEDshare#1 system along
to your friends for evaluation. Please encourage them to
register their copy if they find that they can use it. All
registered users will receive a copy of the latest version of the
MEDshare#1 system.
