Not necessarily. They could have won a full-fledged version, like me. Heck,
for all the good it's doing me, they could have the full-fledged version I
won, which is currently living in the file cabinet. It appears anyway as if
they are doing an intro at that price, and if you like the work they'll
give you their regular rates.(Valerie Priester)
I have a copy of RoboHelp in my desk waiting for me to use it. I admit that
I did forget about how free copies occasionally find their way into our
hands. I apologize to the group for jumping to conclusions about where they
obtained their software. But, it doesn't matter how they got it, I still
think they're a scam outfit.
