This week, BT Openworld revealed details of its Software To Go scheme which lets people rent software by the hour, day or week. This includes games, graphics packages, educational titles and even programs that let you design your garden."

Actually a good idea.

I've lost count of how many times people have complained to me about crappy software they were stuck with after buying it blind. This could save them some money.
