Thanks for the information, Jack. I'm still a little uncertain, though. The problem is that the product would be bought by people working in an American institution with U.S. grant money (although, coincidently, the person who will actually buy it happens to be a Canadian living in the U.S. at the moment!) and then shipped overseas to Zimbabwe. Thus, it would be a lot like buying "technology" in the U.S. and shipping it to another country, not between two commonwealth countries. This may be a matter not of someone who is working in a country where a product can't be got, but rather someone who does not have a lot of expertise but knows they need something. My colleague simply wants to return a favor by picking up the tab for some products that this person cant seem to find on her grant (which had in turn saved a lot of money because his institution didn't charge her for something when she was visiting there… its a long story!) Actually, he's got the CorelSCSI, but he's looking for "optimizing software". All I know is what was scribbled on the back of an envelope and shown to me! The "optimizing software" may be something Corel provides with their hardware and then upgrades, like a printer driver. Or it could be some monster product for $695! Thanks again for the info. I hope someone from Corel is on this week. GTL
