My sister runs a computer education program for inner city kids, and they have the typical group of apple ii's. All the educational progs seem to be copy protected, WHICH IS TOTALLY BRAINDAMAGED. My advice was to make one copy of each program (using one of the cracker programs), and lock up the original. NEVER let the kid's run on the original. Unless a solution is developed, we are raising kids as software pirates because the teachers have to be pirates.
