This is Totally free software.
No cost. No guilt. No support.

SYNOPSIS: This is a Sorting Hat, as described in
Harry Potter, book 1 pages 113-123. The Sorting Hat looks deep inside
you, selects a House for you to live in while at Hogwarts, and tells
you about your parents.
This version is an adaptation of my popular Palm Pilot Sorting Hat program.
I converted it to Windows (under intense public pressure)
but due to laziness left out the statistics and sound effects and cheat-mode.

To INSTALL:
Place SortingHat.exe somewhere on your disk and give yourself a link to it.
   
To USE:
Fill in the required information about yourself, then tap the
(SORT ME) button. The hat will do its magic tell you about your pedigree.
It will then assign you to the proper House.
Results should be the same as the Palm Pilot version, which is also the same
as the Hogwarts original sorting hat.  I know, because Dumbledore bought a
site license from me and was one of my beta testers.
