The Gold Hill 286 product is not copy protected in any way. The copy
protection on the PC version is, I agree, obnoxious, but I wouldn't 
recommend anything less than the 286 version for real work anyway.

Spiros also objected to the price of the 286 system @ $900; the price
is an objective fact, but we find it worth the money compared to any system
of comparable performance.
