           Shareware versions (PRO and LITE) only
*********************************************************************

Note - At this time, only the LITE version can be registered
       and the PRO version is still in eta testing!
       After the PRO eta version testing is completed, the
       PRO will be available for downloading and registration
       following the same procedures as the LITE!

Proper Procedures
=================
Everyone is initially routed through the Registration Site
to download the WinRamTurbo product in one of two flavors.
The Registration Site is ran by a third party and not
collocated with the Author's web site! WinRamTurbo is
encapsulated inside a registration key-lock system provided
at the Registration Site.

One flavor is a download of both the Trial version and the
FULL version. The Trial version will run for a limited time
of 14 days, then you must either purchase a Registration key
to Unlock the FULL version or simply uninstall the Trial
version! 

The other flavor is a download of ONLY the FULL version
which will require a Registration key in order to Run
purchased from the Registration Site!
 
All Registration keys are purchased and controlled solely
by a third party Registration Site. The Author does not
issue or replace keys. This is a matter solely for the
Registration Site. You will receive email from them when
you purchase a key, please make a copy of that contact info!

The Registration Site will be your initial contact with 
WinRamTurbo. Keys will work one-time for the version that
was original downloaded and WILL NOT work for any other
versions! FREE Future UpGrades will come from the Author!

Once you have purchased a key from the Registration Site,
then ALL contact ceases from them and the Author of
WinRamTurbo takes over the Support of ALL FREE UpGrades
to you. You will be managed under an UpGrade Notification 
System each time a new UpGrade is released. You will be
given special instructions on obtaining the NEW FREE
UpGrade from the Author and NOT from the Registration Site!

It is very important that you understand these procedures
that will help reduce the amount of confusion and email
received from the customer.

We are here to Support this product using the above guidelines!

Are you a Windows user?
If so, WinRamTurbo is THE way to handle out of memory errors.
