This "attitude" is is derived from finding Diamond Back on no less than 20
BBS's within 3 months of it's initial release.

I dislike losing hard earned money through software theft. If someone came

wouldn't you get upset?? I dislike the tone of your response because I have
made positive contributions to the ST community. If you can't handle that
then you should just BE QUIET.
>Hm, a disgruntled (but obviously otherwise gainfully employed) developer, eh?
Well, a man's got to eat.
