After your 30-day evaluation period, you are legally required
to register Stella if you decide to continue using it. There
are many benefits, not the least of which will be a sensation of
warm altruism accompanied by a clear conscience.

The shareware release currently under evaluation is similar in
most respects to the registered version.

What sets fully registered copies apart is:

1)  Customization to your precise location and preferences
2)  complete absence of reminders, delays, and restrictions
3)  the capacity to load the entire first-level database of
    over 9000 stars
4)  added comets and star names
5)  Time-advance animations (sidereal)
6)  Sky dynamically reflecting moonlight and sunlight levels
7)  The complete Messier Catalog in ImageIcons
8)  Precession of the equinoxes
9)  Lifetime support by mail or e-mail
10) *free* Stella 2000 updates by request for the entire
    lifetime of the product
11) Automatic eligibility for special offers and add-ons


In return for your registration* Swimming Elk Software will
send you a personal (dedicated) copy of the latest version of
Stella pre-programmed with your name, home location and
startup preferences. You may contact us by post or E-mail at
any time after registration with any problem or query
concerning the inner workings of Stella.

Swimming Elk Software welcomes pre-registration enquiries,
even if their sole motive is to confirm to yourself that we
actually exist. A simple postcard or e-mail with your name and
address and a reference to Stella 2000 will suffice to get you
a reassuring reply.

We undertake to answer ALL Stella-related correspondence,
whether it concerns registration or not.



        Summary of Payment Methods
        --------------------------

Briefly, the following types of order are accepted.
Please see next section for details.

Non-sterling equivalents are given in U.S. dollars.

METHOD     TOTAL COST

1A) Sterling currency (cash) 				25 pounds UK
1B) Sterling cheque (personal or banker's)		25 pounds UK

2A) Non-sterling currency (cash)      			$45 U.S.
2B) Non-sterling banker's check/draft 			$45 U.S.

2C) Non-sterling personal/business check		$45 U.S.

3A) International Money Order				$45 U.S.

4A) 200 Suomen markkaa (Finnish marks) - ks. alla	200 Fmk

5A) Credit card order        				$49 U.S.




                Payment Alternatives
               ----------------------

* Stella costs a basic 25 pounds sterling or US$45.

Payment might be in the form of a sterling cheque drawn on a
UK bank (made out to R.Hughes), any major credit card,
International Money Order, even a personal check or
cash at the present exchange rate in your own hard currency.

Regrettably, we must charge a handling fee if payment is in
non-sterling currency, PERSONAL CHECK, or IMO, bringing the
total to $45 U.S. at the current exchange in whatever tender
you decide to send. We accept all hard currencies as payment.

For orders by CREDIT CARD please add a further $4 (see below for
details). This surcharge is necessary in order to cover the rather 
excessive cost of international wire transfers between our bank
and our credit card agents, but it's by far the fastest way to obtain
your registered copy of Coeli. Turnaround times are typically between
12 and 24 hours. You may order online or by phone/fax anytime and from
anywhere in the world.

A final alternative is 200 Finnish marks, to which handling
need not be added if payment is in cash or any cheque drawn is
on a Finnish bank.

    NOW YOU CAN REGISTER STELLA ONLINE!
    **********************************

For secure, no fuss, Internet registration via credit card,
just point your Web browser at one of the links at the foot of
this document.


Why should I register?

Because Swimming Elk Software is waiting to send you a
dedicated copy of Stella 2000 hard-coded with your name, home
location and startup preferences. Stella can be with you
within 24 hours. Your registered copy will be equipped to load
the entire first-level database of over 9000 stars along with
an extensive inventory of DSOs, images, and commentary.
You may also contact us by mail or E-mail at any time after
registration with just about any problem or query relating to
Coeli.


How do I start?

Optionally, please set aside a few minutes to fill out and submit
your online customization form. 

As soon as we receive your order, we will get to work
personalizing your very own unique copy of Stella, which we
will then e-mail to you by our Express Internet Service.

Delivery times are typically 6-24 hours.


Confused?

Essentially, registering Coeli online is a two-stage process:

1) Filling out your customization form online (optional)

2) Ordering online with your credit card

The two stages are entirely separate, the customization
handled by us at Swimming Elk Software, and your credit card
order by Share-It! with their secure submission
facilities. These are our agents for handling all online
registrations, and they will inform us electronically of your
order immediately they receive it, so that we can process and
despatch your Stella package without delay.

Aside from the possible handling fee, all else (postage, media
etc) is included.


Registering by post
-------------------
You have only to press the [r] key, or select |Register| from the Help
menu, and a registration facility is available from within Stella itself. Here, you may
set out your preferences for a personalized copy, enter comments and 
criticisms, and prepare/print out a registration form.

Alternatively, a simple letter along with your registration will suffice.
( Don't forget to include any customization preferences you may have 
  Only the most unreasonable requests are refused...)


Thank you.
