The Installer uses a standard Windows install wizard.  The Zip version contains the same files, but in Zip format so you can extract them where ever you'd like.  GEDSpy can be run from a USB Flash drive.

Once GEDSpy is ready for prime-time, it will have a 30-Day trial period where it can be used to determine if it is suitable for your needs.  After the 30 day trial period is over, GEDSpy will no longer work and will need to be registered.  This page will be changed when GEDSpy is ready for to make its debut.
