Learning To Fly
Dear retarded software developers: when you put nags in your software, it is not freeware; when you put a time-bomb on your binary, it is not freeware; if you're giving us a '30-day demo,' it is not freeware; if you collect personal information or include banner advertisements within your software, it is not freeware; when you cripple functionality within the program, it is not freeware. I can handle shareware. I can handle demos. I can handle just about any kind of download you throw at me. However, label it correctly or I'm gonna have to slap you upside the head!

OK, I'm not really a software developer, but I know a few. From talking with a couple of them, during a luncheon last month at my university, it wouldn't surprise me if some did write like that.

Not to be mean, but it would be funny to see a retarded software developer. I'm sure something good would come out of it… :-P
