Amy if I donated my copy of k1000 I would give up my license. I would then
have to buy a new copy to get a license. I simply cannot think of a reason
why anyone would donate a copy of a licensed program to someone unless that
person died and no longer needed a scanning software package. If, for
instance, the person wanted to change from Open Book to K1000, Kurzweil has
a trade in policy but the person has to give kurzweil their OB license
number. Hope this makes the process clearer.

True. But members of this discussion list know people who know people who know people. People need not donate to Bookshare to find ways to donate programs to people in need. It was just a question/idea.
When I broke up my libray I gave away almost 30 boxes of books to individuals and to some schools and to people friends told me about. I still occasionally give away books I still have left but don't need or know I won't use again. And I exchange some for credit at a used & new bookstore so that I can get used books at $0.20 on the dollar and new ones at a significantly reduced price.

Bookshare is separate from Kurzweil or Freedom Scientific and does not give or sell software made by either company to individuals and does not take donations of anything other than money and books to the best of my knowledge. For instance, I do not think bookshare takes donations of computers, scanners or any kind of software. Somebody can correct me if I am wrong here.

thanks for the information. Someday I may get to use it. Appropos of which, and this may sound ghoulish but it is not really meant as such, what happens to programs like K-1000 when they are no longer needed. Can they be donated to people who do need them ? Can they be willed to organizations like Bookshare for the use of needy members? Since they are purchased outright (I assume) they should be the property of the owner to do with as he chooses short of illegally copying them or such. I vaguely remember something about their being used on other computers in a network so I am assuming they can be moved or reinstalled. Anyone know?

Hello,
I can also tell you that there will be a relatively inexpensive, comprehensive Kurzweil 1000 tutorial available soon for those interested in learning the product.

An extensive tutorial for using k1000 exists. It is on the site under the download section. Hitting enter on the mp3 link plays the sound of the tutorial automatically. The tutorial can also be downloaded in .txt for for those wanting that format.
We may want to put this in the tips section.
