I am a software junkie and like to see software in any form.  One day I
decided to look through a few current magazines that I have and found that a
lot of companies offer free demo disks.  Most of said companies have toll free
lines which make it somewhat less painless.

I know it's easier and quicker to download most of these demos from BBS's but
as a consultant it's more impressive for my clients to see the software
company's label on the disk.

Below is a list of the companies I could find that offered this disks.  I have
called most of the toll free numbers and found that they work both in Canada
and the United States.  With the exception of Microsoft which has toll free
numbers for each country.
