I bought JET 1.0 for the mac at the first store I saw it it.  It isn't great
software but works about like I expected.

With one exception:

The manual claims I simply copy it to my hard disk and away it goes.

We still have people around that think copy protection is acceptable.

I cannot make this package work from the hard disk or from a backup floppy.  
It seems to copy ok but then when I try to run it the program complains about
some sort of I/O error.  I have tried this on a friends mac plus with the
same result.

I do not regret the purchase but the first time I can't run from the original 
floppy I am going to be real upset.
