Ok Louis,

I've freeloaded off of you long enough. I want to buy (certainly before the price goes up), but for some reason plimus doesn't seem to be cooperating. The buy now page never loads.

That's not good! No one else has ever reported a problem with the Buy Now page. I've tested it 100 times in several different browsers and never had a problem.

It might have been a temporary glitch at Plimus. Please try again. If you still have a problem, send me an e-mail directly and I'll make sure that gets resolved ASAP.

Wait ... I think I may see the problem. The current BuyNow screen defaults by showing a quantity of 0 licenses. If you press "Checkout" without changing that number, it just reloads the same page. You have to either change the number to 1 or click on the "Personal License for 20.00 USD link" to get to the Checkout page.

That is NOT good. I can't see how to change that in the Plimus setup, so tonight I'll get rid of that page completely and put the first Checkout page up there directly instead. It will take one less step and eliminate that problem in the future.

Sorry to have caused that problem. Very sorry! Something like that could very easily stop people who want to buy from buying.

Thanks for pointing this out to me.

Louis,

Whatever you did fixed it. Somehow, through the miracles of modern technology $20 (US, that is) magically transferred itself from my pocket to yours, and 16 characters appeared in an e-mail message to me. That's more than a dollar a character! I think I got the better end of the deal, though.

I would calculate your cost a little differently. Each page of your 400 page printout costs 5 cents a page.

And next year when you upgrade, it will cost you $0.00. The year after when you upgrade, it will cost you $0.00. Use Behold for 10 years and it will cost you $2.00 a year, or less than 1 cent a day.

As for that $20 that was magically transferred to me. I believe I magically lost it yesterday when my wife came home from shopping and claimed she saved me $40.

But really, thanks for your purchase.

Louis
