     The news that ADAPSO has withdrawn its support for the "hardware key"
method of software "authorization" is one of the most positive and
reasonable steps I can imagine.  It's obvious from the industry trend
that copy protection is going nowhere; I was getting ready to get REALLY
annoyed at having to dangle a bauble from my PC.

     Kudos to ADAPSO for a decision that could not have been easy
to reach, although it was right.

      -D.
