Because if you use NFS to load a copy of AmigaTeX onto an Amiga <>for which it isn't licensed, you've just *stolen* a copy of AmigaTeX. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Obviously, if you have licensed it for the Amiga you're running it on, it doesn't matter *how* you get it loaded: from floppy, from vdk:, from a hard disk, or over the phone lines. If you haven't licensed it, it doesn't matter either - you've stolen a copy, even if the copy on your NFS server is perfectly legal *for another machine*.
