Sorry about posting this to the entire network, but our mailer wouln't accept
his mail address. Besides, this might help other people too...

I have heard that the 'ISEPIC' cartridge will remove the protection from most
pieces of software.  It works by a flipping a switch on the cartridge, then
whatever is in memory will be saved out to disk.  So anything that does'nt do
repeated protection checks will be made useful with this device.  If you are
using it for your own purposes it should be perfectly legal.  Just one problem,
you will need a friend with a 1541 to do the 'protection stripping' with.

The 'ISEPIC' cartridge adds it's own fastloader to the converted software, and
I have heard that this fastloader will work with IEEE type(2031, SFD-1001,
etc.) disk drives.

I'm not sure of the address of the company, but the company's name is
Starpoint software. just look it up in any _RUN_ or _Compute_ magazine.

                                                  Hope I helped ya!
