Thank-you, you probably arent familiar with the world famous MTS which in my
opinion
deserves (0) respect..

Sure, protection schemes are devised to keep the honest person at bay..

BTW, on the subject of protection schemes:
I have devised a way to write a new custom boot-sector and add a counter
that will count
backwards to (0) when (0) is reached, the disk is no-good because I write
AA55h
instead of 55AAh "pretty neat little fool stamp" that is required by a
boot-sector in
DOS or Win to be read. Maybe I'll even go even further now that Im
interested and write
my own disk format....who knows!
