- Due to my miscommunication, some people thought Free meant Freeware in every sense of the word -- meaning every possible feature enabled in the Free version and NO nags. Please note, I removed the timer from the nags, but there still is a nag at startup. I've never been one to place really annoying nags around, but that is one mechanism I use to convert actual buyers. Also, many advanced features are not available there. Therefore, it is Semi-Free. NOTE: Process Lasso has been publicly classified as Shareware for years now, despite our continuing liberal use policy. So, it is not 100% free, though ProBalance and other popular functions do keep working forever.
- Paying customers were confused in some cases and thought v4 had become free (a rumor that got started probably because the change log lists removal of the timed nags). It is NOT free. It is Shareware. You get many more features and no nags,. amongst other things. I definitely appreciate your support above all ;). You make Process Lasso possible for all of us.
- I personally find the name has a bit of humor in it ;)
For a list of changes between Process Lasso Semi-Free and Process Lasso Pro/Server, see here: http://www.bitsum.com/howfree.php . I call our licensing model FreeShareware (yes, absurd or not).
The Server Edition is actually a time limited trial (30 days), after which it won't function. So, it is more 'classic' shareware.
