Quoting (again) Mike Gunderloy, here's one of the wolves.

Enough of that. How would you like a serious development tool for free,
no strings attached? I reviewed Alpha Five version 5 positively back in
Developer Central #16 (the issue is archived online at
http://mcpmag.com/newsletter/article.asp?EditorialsID=136 if you want to
see what I said). Briefly, Alpha Five is a $349 retail database that's
attempting to go head-to-head with Microsoft Access. Of course, trying
to grab market share away from Access is a tad difficult. One thing that
the folks at Alpha Software want to do is get Access and VB developers
to try the product so they can decide for themselves if it lives up to
its ease of use reputation. So, they're willing to give away 1,000 full
working copies to Developer Central readers. 

Of course, there are more than 1,000 of you out there, so it's not a
sure thing. But to have a shot at it, send an e-mail to
marketing at alphasoftware.com     with the subject line "MCP Alpha Five
Offer". Include your name, company name, Web site (if any, and a short
note about your experience with database software. Two weeks after this
issue of Developer Central comes out (which would be April 2) they'll
draw 1,000 names at random and notify the winners."
