Re: Opinions Wanted

After thinking about it some more (see insomnia does have it's good side)
I'd probably be more inclined for the 90 day (or even 60 day) if it started
the day the app was first deployed, and did not include the development time
(not sure if its possible or even cost effective but maybe kick in the time
once the 2nd or 3rd "unique" id runs it, i.e. as the "registered" developer
my 400 id could run it and not kick in the time limit, as soon as someone
other than myself ran it the timer starts???)

Just a thought

I am soliciting opinions from the members of this list in respect to the
following somewhat hypothetical scenario. In order to reduce list
clutter,
please email replies to me directly.

Suppose that a new System i web interface were to become available that
tapped into the WebFacing API and could therefore be used to provide a
relatively simple mechanism for the web enablement of existing RPG and
COBOL
applications.

Would you be more likely to give such software a trial if:

a) You could only run (say) three concurrent "5250" sessions, but there
was
no time limit on the trial period

OR

b) have unlimited use of the full product but only for a limited period of
(say) 90 days.
