Summary: A good Copy Scheme..


I believe the best protection scheme that I have seen must be the one that
the makers of SOFTERM for the Apple use.  Not only would you need to copy a
disk, but you would also have to reproduce the hardware that comes with
software!  If you get beyond that point successfully, you still have to
figure out how to use SOFTERM II or III without the manual! (I have a hard
enough time using SOFTERM WITH the manual!)
