I was not suggesting that, as I pointed out. > Upload a whole system to my web space? No, I won't. I didn't detail how I could do that, so your comment is baseless. I know that putting nigh on 650 Mb into Web space is probably impossible for most people, but with cable, I could just host the file off my own machine, via my FTP server, and privately offer the user/pass. As for warez, I stand by my previously stated viewpoint - he is meant to have that CD (as Jason pointed out, the StarMax-specific CD), and so a copy of it is perfectly acceptable. A free copy of a Mac OS 9 CD is, of course, not acceptable. That is the difference, to me - one might buy Mac OS 9 separately as an *OS* (and thus, no-one else is entitled to a copy of that CD), but one does not *buy* the *StarMax CD* - the computer is the item that is bought and sold, and the CD belongs as part of that package. As Jason also said - he bought himself a legal copy of Mac OS 9, but that was because he was not entitled to Mac OS 9 - he had no copy on CD, and Mac OS 9 is not part of the StarMax package. However, driver discs and CDs are part of the package, along with the hardware. > BTW ... I didn't need any special CD-ROM drivers for my > SM when I re-installed OS 9. Nor did I, actually. I was pointing it out just in case. Something else to note - if the hard disc is HFS+, the original CD is probably worthless anyhow, as it can't read its content, and won't do any good if you need to boot off it. Though, I did make someone a little private web page recently using graphics taken from System 7.6.1's Desktop Patterns system. - Daniel. -- StarMax is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> StarMax list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/starmax.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/starmax%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
