Cortlandt,
Thank-you very much. I believe you are the first person to actually answer
the question with an opinion on "reasonable" costs.
Thanx,
Jon

All,
Well, if the purpose of the licensing fee is to recover costs of management,
administration then I believe that a fee of $500 to $1,000 would be in line
with the costs cited by 3rd party HP 3000 software vendors. Unless members
of SIG SoftVend tell us otherwise I suggest that costs up to say $1,500
should be accepted without debate.
