A good free program bites the dust!

This pretty much leaves Belarc Advisor as one of the means to
ascertain the Product Key used in the Windows XP installation
along with other pertinent system information.

Everest is a fine tool that should live on and will provide excellent info
for many computer users now and in the future.. True it is being
discontinued, and will be supported only until March 2006 by Lavalys, on
their Online Community Forum.. If you can obtain it now you can still benefit
for as long as you own your rig and or it (Everest or Aida32) serves it's
purpose..
Get it here FREE for as long as it lasts, Everest ver 220...
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html
While Aida32 still serves a purpose, obtainable here for FREE...

The freeware version had a software report until relatively recently.

Looks like it is:
http://www.lavalys.com/purchase.php?...y=evue&lang=en

Special price before 31 January 2006,

You can still get the freeware version 2.2 through the Geeks site. I do not
know when that availability will be withdrawn. It cannot continue if Everest
wish to offer a product for purchase to the exclusion of the freeware
version,
which seems to be their intent.

http://www.lavalys.com/news.php?arti...cat=PR&lang=en

Support for the freeware version ends March 2006.

The free version won't be withdrawn. It will just become obsolete over time
as it is not updated to identify newer hardware.

Yes that's how I interpreted withdrawal of support in March 2006. It's nice
to know
another interprets the situation as I do. Thanks for your confirmation.
