[stuff about what you can plug into ADB] >Like... COPY PROTECTION DONGLES??? IMHO, I don't think that this will be a trend. Specially since: A) All NeXT brand computers, already have unique numbers. B) All future non-NeXT brand computers running NeXTSTEP probably won't have ADB............... NOR built-in unique numbers on the hardware. As it has happened on other platforms, upgrades, and other advancements make copy protection schemes break. Perhaps the standard will be runtime protection on a network.
