When almost free isn't enough

Posted on 16:39 by Unknown
You know, if you've used my software you know I have liberal licensing. You know I'm nice, friendly, and try to provide good support. I make mistakes from time to time, but correct them to the best of my ability. Still, some people demand more. I would *love* to give Process Lasso Pro away totally freely, but then I'd have no place to live as I couldn't pay my rent. If you are one who just can't stand not having the Pro version, but can't pay $24.95 for it, then I'm sorry. I just don't know what else to say.

The Free Edition has all the most popular features and never expires. I don't know what the gripe is really. It just gets me down, ya know. I mean, it seems the more you give, the more people want. I give as much as I possibly can, and then some. If that isn't enough, then ... well, that's all I have to give ;o.

Thankfully, there is another user segment - the segment that buys licenses to help support further development of Process Lasso. To these customers I am truly thankful. Ask any of them and I think they'll tell you they were satisfied. Heck, if they aren't, I even offer a 30 day money back guarantee for home users. I've never had anyone take me up on that. I probably will as soon as I post this, lol.

Well, here's to v4.1 - which I am VERY eager to release as it has some COOL new features and improves the new inter-process communication framework so there are fewer 'lost packets' (if you will).
