As there has been no overt attempt to sell the software but only to emphasise
that this is an INSTALLATION service, please could those in the know comment
on the a) legality and b) ethics of such a service. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS NOT

outs of such an offer, (just in case I decide to offer one in the UK :-).
