Hi Hugh/Claude,
Thanks for the support. For me too, thanks to ADSL, size is no longer an item. But for shareware to become a success, most times you have to attract many people, including those who have minimal/marginal machines/connections. (My application is meant for people who work behind a computer all workday long, so I think it'll be no problem as most of these people have good machines/connections.) One successfull sharewaremaker I spoke with on the _conference_, when I mentioned .NET, said that .NET applications require a 30 Mb library already installed on the user machine. For that reason he kind of ridiculed .NET as platform for shareware development for the time being.

If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
