But as a selling point to get people to buy TB!, after a 30 day fully
functional evaluation period, the "Lite" version would become default
until a valid license is purchased.
I applaud Stefan and Max for producing and continually updating an
excellant product and believe they well deserved to be paid! By
causing the evaluation version to migrate to a Lite version the
customer will not loose their email, but they won't have access to the
enhancements either....until a valid key is purchaced.
Cheers,
Cricket
