 It's a shame; many good products get trampled or ignored due to poor
marketing.

 Since the program is intended to be distributed to my client's customers,
they were concerned over the runtime fees associated w/ each copy.  This is
unacceptable, since they effectively have to pay over and over again.
Also, this project doesn't really require interfacing w/ the /400.
