I am as wildly enthusiastic about this product as I was bitterly dissapointed after spending money on an assembler from HES. One of the (very many) things I like about MAE is the liscensing agreement that came with it. The diskette is not copy-protected, and I can (theoretically) back it up as long as nobody but myself gets to use the copy or original. That's fine with me, except that I don't know how to back the disk up. It's all in machine language, so I can't load it with basic, then save it to another diskette. Can anybody tell me a quick and easy way to make myself a backup copy? I have access to a second 1541, if that helps. All replies are appreciated. If anybody asks and if nobody beats me to it, I'll put the answer on the net when I find out. -- --Bill Buie
