Why get the $24.00 one when you can get one for $15 including shipping?

The 409 software can be downloaded from the RossTech web site for free.

Software can be downloaded directly from Rosstech. It is a trial version but it works fine in most cases.

There is a post on this forum on how to trick it into thinking that it is a full version. Once again, my pet peeve... I am lazy, you look it up.
