 1. Thanks.  Congratulations and thank you for licensing our software. 
We're sorry to cramp your style, but our lawyers tell us that if we want
to keep control and ownership of the cool stuff we're developing, we
have to make sure you understand and agree that you are just getting a
right to use it and that that right is limited in certain ways.  So
here's what follows is what you need to know and agree to.  
 
 2. License.  The demonstration version of the software accompanying
this license and the related documentation (the "Demo Software") are
licensed for your use and gaming enjoyment, subject to terms and
limitations in this license agreement.	This is not a full fledged
version of the software; it is a demonstration version.      
 
 3. Use Restrictions.  We want you to enjoy our products for years to
come, and we want to be able to continue to send you awesome games, so
you need to be aware that there are some things you cannot do with the

naughty and fail to comply with any provision of this license, this
license will terminate immediately without notice from us.  Upon
termination, you must destroy the Demo Software and related

be pleasant for either of us.  If we do have to come after you, we're
going to expect you to pay us for our troubles, including the cost of

you will.
 
 10. Enjoyment Requirements.  We are aware that there are rumblings and
grumblings within the gaming community about heavy handed, legally
onerous license agreements.  You have our word that this one is as fair
and even handed as it gets and, as you have read this far, you know it
to be true.  Now, be gone from this screen and enjoy the Demo Software,
and if you like it, be sure to tell all your friends how great it is and
make sure they try it, too!
