If you're going to put part of the code in the dongle, why not put ALL of it
in the dongle? I mean, cartridge software is reliable and fast to load, and
with todays PROMs you can get quite a lot of code in one. Of course you can't
call it a cartridge, because then people will think "GAME MACHINE". How about
"THEREWARE", because it's always their waiting for you?

But then you'ld have to worry about all the hackers with PROM burners.
