Perhaps, but my point is that, prima facie, O.P. Steve Hodgson asked
where he could download a trial version of Aperture, and explained that
he understood that it was being discontinued, but that he wanted
Aperture for "one specific purpose."

That sounds to me like a man who has done his homework and knows what
he wants, and does not need to have his motives questioned and to be
told that he should try a different product. Instead, he deserves a
straightforward reply or none at all (which is what I gave him, because
I didn't know the answer to his question).
