Ive been hearing from all over the place that this drive checking via prodigy has something to do with software piracy. Now theres a novel thought. Consider this: If they, (Prodigy) are able to do that, checking your drives I mean, what other services are doing this? As far as im concerned, being an Amiga owner who has to resort to going out and buying either a Mac or an IBM emulator/Bridgeboard just to USE Prodigy, for one, its not worth it.. 2, they havent been very cooperative in releasing an amiga version of the link software. Such is the reason why I dont like Prodigy. Then again, is their ANY online service worth being on anymore? Arctangent
