[mdh@linus.UUCP (Mike Houle (version .6 beta)) writes about the annoying
copy protection on the game Pirates!]
My father-in-law recently bought this game and was incredibly frustrated
with the copy protection. He said that it got in the way so much that
it essentially made the game unplayable. He decided to "just say no"
and called MacConnection and got an authorization to return it.
So, the advice seems to be -- AVOID THIS GAME.
