REGISTRATION ------------ If you wish to register the program, you can do so by post (snail-mail), or online using the RegNet facility (credit cards). If you are using the postal service, please send a cheque (check) for 10 UK pounds, US$15, 30DM or 15 Euros payable to 'RMR Software' (or the equivalent in 'real money' in your actual currency - no foreign currency cheques please), to one of the following addresses, including a stamped address envelope (or an E-Mail address) for the reply: RMR Software c/o 6000 Natick Court Burke, VA 22015 USA RMR Software c/o 46 Mortimer Road Kempston Bedford MK42 8RE ENGLAND RMR Software c/o PSIOlogic Versand Sudentenstrasse 46 D 63571 Gelnhausen GERMANY Please note that these are the addresses of our 'agents'. If you use these addresses, registration codes will be sent out fairly quickly, but if you send a technical query it will have to be redirected to us, so might take longer to reply. If you have access, we can be reached quickly at support@rmrsoft.com and the author can be reached directly at M.C.Wheadon@ukc.ac.uk If you wish to register using a credit card you can register on the WWW through RegNet, the Registration Network. RegNet can be reached by e-mail: orders@reg.net or on the World Wide Web: http://www.reg.net or in the USA by calling 1-800-WWW2REG (1 800 999-2734) or the easiest way is by following the links from our WWW Home page at: http://www.rmrsoft.com/ This program has been allocated the RegNet Number: 4758 and this should be quoted. Again, the notification tends to get to us within 24 hours and we reply within another 24 hrs. (Note that paying by this method will involve an extra US$5 handling charge.) In each case, we (or our agent) will then send you a personalised registration code to enter (select the option via the Menu) to remove the 'nag' screen and allow full use of the program. Note that you will NOT need a new copy of the program, all the functionality is already there but just needs 'unlocking' by the registration code. We will also ensure that this code remains forward compatible with future versions of the program so, unlike other programs, we will not be asking for a further fee for an upgrade.
