Can you say "DEAD HORSE?" That's what arguing about copyrights and out of date
Apple software is like. No software developer in his/her right mind would file
a law suit against anyone for copying his/her Apple II software! The operative
words are "right mind." Personally, I will not copy or distribute new, or
currently held for sale, Apple software titles! Beyond that, WTFC!? (Who the
F*** cares?) For those who copy; do it and shut up. For those who don't, don't
and shut up! Damn this subject is getting old! I wonder if the TRS80, TI and
Commodore groups beat this horse to death as well. Maybe we should start a new
newsgroup dealing with people frozen in time with their thinking. While this
was an interesting topic in the late 70's and early 80's; it's lame at this
time. (Sorry, Joe and the few others who are trying to make a living on a, as
eBay would put it, a RARE computer.)
