It is extremely bad to copy apple stuff, though putting the roms on floppy would have been easy for ReadySoft, it would have been easily the biggest mistake of the decade. This is mainly do to apple's "copy, but don't be coppied!" policy on buisiness. I own Amax, and I feel that the craked version adds an important step, It lets you avoid buying the roms from apple and lets you use different roms. It also lets use amax with or without the hardware, so if you agree that the box was poorly designed and it doesn't fit behind your computer, you don't need it. I don't use this version, and I am not affiliated with Apple, or ReadySoft, though I am waiting for Dragon's Lair II.
