Isn't this a good idea, even without a time limited demo version?
I've often wondered if Transact might be a "good fit" for our needs at
UTC, but reading the manual doesn't really tell you want it can do in
a practical way.  Some real code examples or models might be just
the e-ticket.

I've also wondered at the work involved in converting from a COPYLIB
centric development model to a Dictionary/3000 centric approach.
