Being that Teledisk is an important piece of software for us vintage
computer enthusiasts, it might be worth our while to petition Sydex to
create a low-cost hobbyist license to make it affordable. Or we could all
pitch in for a 25-user "site" license and just claim our office is
"distributed".
Or, a certain author of XenoCopy who is subscribed to this list could
take this as a great opportunity to start actively marketing his program
again (which IMO is better than Teledisk).
