However if you are looking to trial some software for free, I would guess someone could have it up and running with a basic setup in under 2 hours

?( hours??!

Ohhh, no he didn't! :-) Everyone is biased toward the product they like.

oh come on.. you've prolly seen some of the pings i get for people not being able to get set up within 10-15 minutes of starting

but 2 hours?? inch:

[Gallo]

Oh, I certainly agree with you Rob. Keyclone is pretty hassle-free and take minutes to be up and running. (I'd say less than 5 minutes if you've read enough of the forums to be successful on the first installation try).

Heh, I'm kinda quirky and actually enjoy AHK but.... I've easily got 8 hours in configuring it in conjunction with my Xkeys and still haven't even mapped my chain heals. Oh, and I'm not broadcasting to another machine, that's all just on the same machine.

To each his/her own

8 hours? Yikes. I originally bought 5 copies of Keyclone at $10 a piece, even though I now only use 1 copy.... and it was well worth it to me to not have the hassle of programming my own keys. I mean damn, putting together MACROS for all the toons is a chore in itself.

Oh dear,,,,,bad draku.....bad draku......I promised I wouldnt post again on this thread.........bad bad bad

personally... when it comes to 'free' software that has no ads and no discernible means of income, i'm ALWAYS suspicious.

And this is your fully informed, 'no-conflict of interest' opinion of course

[keyclone]

it would be the opinion from a 'net citizen for over 20 years (bbs anyone? can you say procomm?)

open source is one thing... and yes, i do build my own copies.. and yes, i look through the source (on the less popular items)

why would anyone put out software, compiled, no source... for free?

and yes, all that free anti-virus software.. you do realize there is a company out there supporting/writing it.. how do they pay their people? chickens? shiny beads? unlikely. and the last i checked, web hits don't pay... unless you have over 1m of them consistently for many months... and the only reason they pay is because someone sees a spot they can put an ad

BBS! I mentioned the term BBS to a new college grad (granted, I only graduated 5 years ago) and he had no idea what I meant by it. I was on a couple of BBS'es when I first started getting into computers in 1991-ish.

WOW!! REALLY? NO SURELY NOT????

Look....You have no idea what Freddie's motivations are......that is my point.... .....what the hell do you mean you are 'suspicious' ? About what ffs!

However you do have financial reasons to sow doubt in peoples mind.

I will tell you what is suspicious..........read my OP........now tell me what you are all so frightened about?

If this forum is about selling Keyclone...then maybe you should make it a bit clearer.....then I could have saved myself some time in finding out like this. (Time I could spend fiddling with my product that is so suspicious)

For what it is worth......people who say I HAVE 20 years experience....normally have 20x1 years experience in my book .........

(Really does fade away now)
