   So far everybody has talked about software protection that is 
disk-based. Has anyone seen or heard how some of the other methods
work? In particular, Clarion (and others) are using a little box
that connects into the parallel port of a PC. This is fine as long
as you have a parallel port however most of our machines around
here only have serial. (They have old Seattle cards with just a
serial port) Anybody know anything??
