Hey Byron. Nice post. Thanks for the info. I didn't know that about
the copyright thing, that sounds pretty bunk. I've actually called
Emagic about trying to find a PC copy as well and even the Emagic guy
told me to check 'The Usual Places', which is kinda of strange to
hear. But to be honest, I've even had no luck with 'the usual
places'. Maybe it's my machine and I should try someone else's
connection, I'm not sure. All of this is giving me a second wind at
trying to tackle the whole tape thing again, which I should probably
do anyways. Thanks once again Byron and to everyone for their
assistance, I'll ring back with my progress. Kris.
