re:  Is this legal?
I've noticed that SuperLaserSpool 2.01df has just come down the pipe
of comp.binaries.mac.  Isn't SuperLaserSpool 2.0 a product of 
SuperMac Software?

	the version posted was posted by me with permission from SuperMac
	and is a modified version of the commercial software which is
	distributed free with Dataframe disks and is only useful to
	owners of Dataframes and when using a Dataframe (the software
	goes out looking for the DataFrame ROMs on the SCSI-bus ...)

	I don't know how it happened, but somehow no introductory note
	was attached  to the article, nor a disclaimer which I am usually
	so proud to add.

	Maybe I assumed that the file as I had received it from
	SuperMac was self-explanatory - so much for assumptions.

	but I'd like to point out that I also posted an article to
	comp.sys.mac explaining all about how this version is only
	useful on DataFrames - and I sent an article to comp.newprod
	with the official press release by SuperMac  describing the
	product.

	actually, I may have sent the needed explanation in the submission
	to the moderator and he dropped it - I don't now.  I'm not looking
	for who dropped the ball, but apologize for the shortcoming of
	the submission.  BTW, when you have questions about the legality,
	why not send email to the submitter rather than getting the
	whole world nervous? ... :-)

				Cheers,		---Werner
