I definitely have to agree. I'm having a hard time deciding whether I want
to pay the shareware fee or not. It seems like there are times when I use
Virtual II fairly often, but then there are times where I don't use it for
weeks at a time. And I already have the real hardware and fairly decent
methods of transferring data.

It's a good emulator, but I fear that I don't make enough use of it to
warrant the full $50 fee. And the lesser fee is sort of useless for me, IMO.
If I get into the time limit pause, I just quit and restart the emulator,
which in most cases is faster than waiting 1 minute.
