I've been wondering about this too, and would like to know what you all think regarding the very precarious nature of old software in this community.
I'm a new comer, to be sure, but even I can see that the use of vintage computers hangs by a very delicate string; the web of different sources of what is essentially deprecated warez. It's a little like being a teenager back in the 1990's, except instead of download a copy of some game my target is an important (and almost IMPOSSIBLE to purchase legally) set of system software or utilities. The difference is that these sources are even HARDER to find now, and there is no guarantee they will be here tomorrow.
I feel bad about it, because back then I had no money to pay for this crap anyways (beyond my allowance, which lets face it was not going towards gamez) but now as an adult (oh jeeze... really?) I actually have the cash to pay and what's more I appreciate the efforts of these bygone programmers and want to show my appreciation.
I have a copy of EV that I want to register, is Ambrosia still taking orders for licenses?
