It's strange how the software market has changed over the years. We started off expecting to pay for apps, then cane shareware and the ability to try (and generally pay much less) and now we can do most things for free.

I wonder if anyone is ever going to pay us for using their software?

Indeed Rik, possibly Google, if any, certainly not the Gates clique. ;)

not quite what is mentioned above, these links can help you make money by writing software reviews in a number of ways, may be of interest to some.
