Hi Tom,

If your needs are very very simple then you could use Wix.
But I started with Installshield and then went Installshield Express 
since the beginning of time. But I have always paid for it - Tax 
Deduction anyone.

Something to potentially be concerned about is that there is a new 
standard on the horizon. But that is for future Tom to deal with :)

Leslie.
