Hello Keith:

I have researched this and found that Bruce is, in fact, quite correct.

Grant Hardy

    Grant I was wondering ware does it say about the demo running for 40
days? Non-stop? I am sure that bruce or someone would have announced a
update or something. Well this is the first I've hurd about a demo doing
this. I know that assuming Freedom Scientific came out with that Internet
based Authorization system for JAWS 5.0 which they didn't, There 40 minute
demo polocy was going to change to a code that would work for 30 days. A
knew code would be out every 6 months.  So, what is this all about? I can't
find ware it says anything about a 40 day demo. I tryed even using
google.com and tryed typing without quotes 40 day demo, too many results!
So, let me know, and please clarify with me about this demo deal. Besides I
need point out that you were the one who said the 40 day thing, not Bruce or
me. So I'd like it if you'd clear this up with me. Note: MSN Messenger
contact keithint38@xxxxxxxxxxx
Regards, Keith.
