!AWJan93/Goodies/IMPACT/!ReadMe

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

                                ======

With this product, Circle Software are introducing a new concept in
software marketing.

IMPACT! is supplied as a partly working demonstration version and,
IN THIS FORM, may be freely distributed as public domain software.
It will perform all functions using the sample data base supplied, 
including merging with Impression, but excluding data import and
the creation of new custom designed data bases.

N.B. This disc may only be freely distributed, provided:-

  1. It has not been registered, see below.
  2. The FULL contents of this disc are included in EVERY copy.

Registration.
============

To fully use the program, your name and a valid security code must 
be entered via the icon bar menu, by selecting the 'Register' option.
The security code may be obtained by calling Circle Software.

If this is a 'paid for' retail copy you may obtain your security code
by calling Circle Software on 0793 770021, and registering this copy.

If this is a free demo version, it may be converted to a fully working 
version by calling Circle Software on the above number, and quoting 
your credit card number in payment of the full retail price. The 
instruction manual will be forwarded by post.

Alternatively, you may write enclosing your credit card authorization,
cheque or postal order, etc, and the serial number of this copy.
Your security code and instructions will be sent by return of post.

Copyright
=========

Please note that registered programs are NOT public domain, and may
NOT be distributed in any way. Please read the file !Licence before
registering your program, and be prepared to agree to the conditions
set out in that file.

Remember that a registered disc is traceable to the original owner.

Distribution Agents.
===================

We are in the process of building a network of distribution agents
through which to market this, and future products. To qualify as an
agent, you must be in contact with a number of Acorn computer owners, 
via for instance a computer shop, club, bulletin board, magazine, 
school, etc, or simply have a lot of owner friends. Agents will receive
commission on all products sold through them, and receive all updates
and future product details free. 

If you would like to participate and think you may qualify, please
give up a ring, on 0793 770021.
