What Adam and others apparently don't realize is that there is 
absolutely, positively, no way to get a legal copy of the Mac ROMs
on floppy disk! Thats right folks, if you have a copy of MacBozo with
it's illegal copy of the Mac ROMs on disk, Apple has an *iron clad* 
case for suing you for copyright infringement. And for those of you
who have a copy don't kid yourself into believing that Apple won't
sue you because your "just some guy with an ST." They have lot's of
resources and *lots* of idle cash in the bank. That cash can pay for
a bunch of lawyers who will drag you into court. I suspect the most
they would be able to sue for would be court costs and the cost of
a Mac that you didn't buy. Let's call it 5 to 8 thousand. No, I am
not trying to scare anyone, just pointing out the realities of the
situation. Certainly one does not help oneself by posting a message
to the whole world requesting information on how to rip off Apple
Computer Corp. And for those friends of ours in europe who have
a somewhat different attitude toward copyrights and software copying,
you should realize it is only yourself you are hurting. I know of
at least three companies that will not sell any software to europe
period.
