Gag me with a few more of these 'DO NOT DISCUSS OR MENTION BAD STUFF' posts. Jeez. I got 7 in a row today! I've got a suggestion (discard now if you don't like suggestions) If you want to break/unprotect a program GO FOR IT! It's a real learning experience. and it's fun. boot trace an old apple // game. learn how the machine really works (stuff you don't find in books). If you don't like the idea of breaking/unprotecting/whatever copyrighted programs then DON'T DO IT! It's simple. If you want aruge about whether you should break/unprotect programs then do it in a legal discussion. Like someone else already said. Until that first 'don't do this' post, i can't recall anyone posting anything about how to break programs. Someone created this problem. that's all i have to say. thank you and goodnight. greg c489030@umcvmb.missouri.edu (@umcvmb.bitnet?)
