| Philosophy |
Customer service is a top priority, and we work to maintain the
highest level of professionalism and performance. We trust that our
customers are satisfied with the level of support and functionality
found in our software products.
The MSU subscription is an annual
payment used to:
- fund the on-going development of
new versions,
- provide end-user technical
support, and
- make updates available to users.
Users with current MSU subscriptions
will be eligible to download and run all versions of the software
built during the subscription period. (The security key holds this
information and may need to be updated when a subscription is
renewed.)

| Benefits |
By renewing your MSU subscription, you will receive the following
benefits:
- Upgrade to the latest version of
your HydroComp software product.
- Private access to software updates
from the software
download web page, or via CD upon request.
- The Marine Performance
Technology Exchange newsletter with information on updates,
technical hints, and more.
What if I am behind on my
subscription?
We believe it is only fair that all
users who take advantage of new versions will have contributed to
its development. Therefore, users who do not have a current MSU
subscription will need to pay a portion of the unpaid back MSU
subscription to receive new updates.
MSU Benefits

breakdown.

"Quick-Calcs" that include a variety of supplemental
