One of the easiest, and really very used ways of copyprotection, is to mark
a specific sector on the installation disk bad. This is very easy to get
around, though, if you have any knowledge of hw-hacking, but most 'normal'
users (yes those lowly key-punchers) don't. Whatever you do, please do

You wanna do masking. Build a bitmap (pixmap of depth one) where all pixels
you name "opaque" are 1 (that get copied) and the others are 0. Use this

In the next few months I am intending to build a 386 or 486 PC system
for remote monitoring. I would welcome any comments or advice you may
have on the choice of motherboard, HDDs and I/O boards. Recommendations
for good companies selling these would be a big help.
Many thanks,

Well, almost. It turns out that clever orbital mechanics can
engineer things so that resonant interactions with the higher order
harmonics of the Earth's gravitational field can pump energy into a
satellite, and keep it from experiencing drag effects for periods of
months to years.

A question for any high-mileage Audi owners out there: I am
interested in buying a 1989 Audi 5000S for $5500 Cdn. The
reason the car is selling for so little is that is has
155000 km on it (just under 100000 mi.). The car's owner
claims the car is in good condition. My question is: how
reliable are Audi 5000s with m... | rec.autos | [

might have their own ideas of what constitutes a "mistake" and which
discoveries of such previous mistakes they accept.

Before I try to teach myself how to write a widget and (perhaps)
re-invent the wheel...
Is there a PD widget that displays (for example) an 8-bit grey-level
image in the same fashion that the Athena Plotter Widget can be used
to display a plot?

Old pioneer song from the 1850's or so goes as follows:
"In a cavern, in a canyon,
Excavating for a mine,
Dwelt a miner, forty-niner,
And his daughter, CLEMENTINE"
Chorus:
"Oh my darling, Oh my darling,
Oh my darling Clementine.
You are lost and gone forever,
Oh my darling C... | sci.space | [

Thank you very much. These computers behave exactly like what
you're describing. Now, my question. I am running on the lowest of all
budgets, public education. How can I analyze this? All I need is some
sort of packet counter. Do any exist, and where are they?
Thanks again,

IS there a simple way tooput these sunroofs out of their misery -
do leaks tend to be from old gaskets ?
or from inadequate mechanical seals -
or all of the above ??
is there any way to halt the rain ?
thanks

Yes.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
No, look again. While you never *said* it, the implication is pretty clear.
I'm sorry, but I can only respond to your words, not your true meaning. Usenet
is a slippery medium.
