I should add that the integer re-set card trick was really nice.

You simply let the game load. If you hit re-set, the computer would re-boot 
normally. With the I card in the machine, when you hit re-set, the game is 
in-memory. You dump it out to tape (using the monitor commands).

You then boot with normally floppy disk. and, then re-load that tape 
dump....

Viola...no reading and painstaking deciphering of copy protected disk. Once 
the game is loaded, you don't care how it got there.

Most of the work was finding the entry point/start point of the game...

Of course this did not work for games that need to read the disk, but, for a 
good many arcade type games, they where in-memory....

ah yes, in a get smart voice:

        The old integer re-set card trick!!
