I appreciate the response I received from all of you regarding C compilers
for the Macintosh. It was both informative and interesting. One further
request, if I may? Is there anyone among you who would be willing to send
me a copy of the Megamax compiler so that I may demo the package before I
cough up the $300? If so, please send the disk to the following address:
J. Froehlich

It will be worth a little something extra in you Xmas stocking. Please send
your Xmas list with the disk! Thanks in advance!!!ward@hao.UUCP (Mike Ward) (02/17/85)

For the good of all of us, and for the survival of USENET, I
think we should all refrain from carrying on our piracies over
this particular medium.

I hope that Megamax is on this net, and that their lawyers nail you to the
wall. From what I have heard, the Megamax compiler is a very good one and
furthermore it is not copy-protected. If it is pirated all over the place,
though, they may decide that it is necessary to stop the pirates even at the
cost of screwing the legitimate users. I don't want to see that happen.

The individual simply wishes to use a copy of the program BEFORE sending is (probably) HARD EARNED money to the authors (or whoever is selling it, as not all products are sold by authors). That doesn't sound like piracy to me. --Johnathan A. Tainter ^dagger^ this comment owes it's existance to the hard working manual writers at IBM and all do credit is hereby posted.

I havn't been on the net so somebody tell me what happened. I certainly hope someone responsible enough to not want Megamax to begin an anti-piracy copy protection system.
