I had the same problem when I sold Videoediting systems. Some of the customers dident have the money upfront to buy the software, or wasent sure that it was the right software for them.
We introduced a "subscribtion system" like the one microsoft tryed to use. The customer "leased" the software from us for a specific project or period. In the end of the period the customer could buy the software for the salesprice - the lease price, or he could simply return it to us.
It worked great for us, but it was a bitch to sell the idear to the customer and the software producer, but in the end they all liked it.
