For each subsequent computer, add $25 for A86 only, $45 for A86+D86+A386+D386.
All the above quoted prices include a single update diskette. You use the
diskette to make an appropriate number of copies as needed.
Note that to qualify for the above rates, the registration must be in a single
name. Thus, the above is not a "group rate", it covers the single-owner, multi-
computer situation ONLY.
A site-license for A86 only is $412. A site-license for A86+D86+A386+D386
is $712.
Again, for a site license, all computers must be owned by the registrant.
1. The computers in the classroom or laboratory, owned by the educational
institution, should be registered. The institution may obtain either a
site-license, or pay according to the multi-computer chart; whichever is the
lesser amount. The institution needs to register its computers
only once to allow usage of the product(s) on its computers forever.
2. If students will be expected to execute my programs in their own computers,
then they should buy a copy of my printed manual. The student version of
the manual gives one student the license to execute A86 and D86 on any
computer for the duration of the course. There is a certificate in the
manual, good for $25 towards upgrading to a full registration. If any
student wishes to distribute or market programs written with A86, or to use
the packages after the course is finished, then the student should use the
certificate to make the upgrade. The price of the student version of the
printed manual is $35 per copy. If 10 or more copies are ordered, the
price is $30 per copy. These books are typically ordered by the college
bookstore, which can mark the price up by an appropriate percentage.
The student manual does not come with a copy of the software -- the course
instructor must obtain a registered copy via the school's license, and
may give out that registered version to all students who purchase a
the student version of the manual.
The license given in the student manual is non-transferable; thus, the
manual MAY NOT be sold as a "used book".
Site Licenses
Instead of paying according to the above schedule, you may elect to purchase
a site-license. A site-license allows you to execute the product(s) on an
unlimited number of your computers at a given site. A "site" for the purposes of
the license is defined as all properties owned by you that are in the same
city as, or within a five-mile radius of, the location you specify with your
site-license registration.Educational Institutions
