No. I will not support Opcode in any way, except to say that their copy
protection *should not be tolerated*.

I was having hard disk problems, and managed to use up all my installs on my
distribution disks on one of the useless bits of trash Opcode passes for
product quality code. I asked them for another, and they wanted $25! This, in
a $350 product! *They* screw up my back-up, and then demand *I* pay for it!

Most Mac software producers have enough healthy competition so that they cannot
get away with malicious interference with their customer's back-up policies.
Unfortunately, Opcode is in a niche market that lacks such competition. Do not
buy their products!
