    1.0   Registration

    Shareware is a term for software that can be freely copied and
    shared.  The term describes copyrighted software which the author
    supports and encourages people to copy and share.

    I encourage you to register your copy of the NFL_1992 program.
    Registration offers the following benefits to you:

      1. Serialized diskette containing the NFL_1992 program, the
         entire 1992 NFL game schedule and all supporting data files.
      2. Telephone and/or bulletin board support.
      3. Right to purchase annual updates as the 1992, 1993, ... NFL
         game schedules evolve for a minimal fee of $10.00 US.  This
         minimal fee covers the cost of the floppy diskette, the floppy
         mailer, the label, postage, and the actual update preparation.


    2.0   Support Services

    You may call, write, or use one of the two supported commercial
    services (both CompuServe and GENIE) to obtain support and
    assistance. Unless the problem is relatively complex, you will
    get the best results by calling. Electronic mailboxes are NOT
    checked on daily basis, but are a very effective way of com-
    municating. Electronic mailboxes are great for relating problems
    receiving work-arounds and/or problem specific updates. If you
    write, please include a phone number and the times when you will
    be available. My response to written questions is much slower.
    
    3.0  Electronic Support

    Electronic support is provided on both GENIE and CompuServe.
    You are strongly advised to obtain a USER ID on at least one
    of these services as no other form of electronic support will
    be provided.

    On GENIE, you can leave mail addressed to T.KERR1.  Mail messages
    are answered as soon as possible.  If you need information on
    obtaining a GENIE account  you can call GENIE toll free at
    800-638-9636.

    CompuServe electronic correspondence is limited to EMAIL.  Our
    EMAIL ID is [75140,3326].  SIG(s) are also occasionally checked
    for messages but should not be considered a vehicle for effective
    communication.  If you are a CompuServe user and you need to reach
    me, use EMAIL.  EMAIL messages are answered as soon as possible.
    If you need information on obtaining a CompuServe account you can
    call CompuServe toll free at 800-848-8199.
