GTAed2 is distributed as shareware.  The essence of shareware is to 
provide you with software that you get to "try before you buy", while 
rewarding the efforts of the developers.  When you think about it, the 
opportunity to try before you buy is the ultimate guarantee of a 
product's quality and usefulness to you.  In fact, shareware can be 
just as professionally developed as software that comes in a fancy box 
(with a lot of hype and yet no way to determine issues such as the 
"look and feel", etc.), but the price of shareware is often lower 
because it does not have to cover expensive marketing costs.  Still, 
software businesses that market their products as shareware need to 
get paid for their efforts just as any other business.  When you 
support the shareware concept, it ensures that the concept will 
continue to work and you will continue to get to "try before you buy". 
Thank you for understanding and honoring the "shareware" concept which 
can ultimately benefit us all.
