Hary,

The DAVE demo is a good choice, I think. You can use it for 2-3 weeks
for free, you can get help with any problems by accessing their (our)
customer support by phone or email, and you can remove it using the
installer (a clean removal!) so there's nothing left over when you're
done. Obviously, we think he'll be hooked on the product by the time 2
weeks is up and he'll WANT to buy it just to have.
