   I like your idea. If I had any ASM knowledge to contribute I would jump on   
   the wagon, but I do not. There is a lot of BBS software that I would love to   
   be able to use, Vircom DMA Client for one, that it is impossible to get a   
   license for. Granted the work is still the property of its distributors, the   
   fact that they refuse to provide a legal means of registering the software   
   leaves people with little choice.   
      
   If you do start cracking I don't see any of those software vendors pressing   
   any charges. In fact do the companies that own the software technically   
   exist anymore? If not, there is technically nobody legally able to press   
   charges unless it is owned by a single individual. Is this correct?   
   (I know Vircom still exists.)
