1.) took several tries to install. Got to remember to disable
your virus protection. Once installed on my hard drive it
wouldn't compress the disk so I had to run off the floppy.
Installation should be done by booting the floppy, then it won't hit
any anti-virus stuff.
2.) Copy protected. You cannot install from the floppy without
first entering your name, company and serial number. I tried
to make a backup floppy but it wouldn't run off that at all.
It's not copy protected, but the floppy doesn't have a finder, so that
drag-copying the floppy will write incorrect information into boot blocks
of the duplicate.
8.) Verdict? Too early to tell yet, and since I have no experience
with the alternatives (AutoDoubler, DiskDoubler, SuperDisk,
DiskSpace, etc.)... Oh, the results: before compress - 89MB of
"stuff", after compress - 52MB of "stuff".
More Disk Space is a real improvement over anything else that I've
ever seen.
