 JD> lol :) Forgive me, but the thought of doing that is scary and funny.

 JD> I get TONS of lost registration code requests every month. The

 JD> The upgrade fee is a good idea, true.  In any case, you're right, the
 JD> registration stuff needs an overhaul.

        Create a java web client or something to do with it.  I
        cam across one door a couple years ago that did that
        and worked pretty well.  You'd setup something in your
        email client so when a reg is sent with cash or CC
        you could automate it to send a reply of some secret
        code to enter to the java client and get the reg.  I
        can't think of the door or the URL now.  But it
        seems that might help.  Then you'd only have to worry
        about paper regs.
