   I can't see *too* much sense in using serial numbered copy detection,
when in fact, a half-knowledgeable hack can search for the serial number
printed on the diskette label using Norton Utilities, etc., and knock it
out in one swoop.

   Unless, of course, you encrypt the serial number (Hmmm, not a bad thought).
