I was going to ask for some details about the Alien 8 protection. But I've
just spent the last couple of minutes considering ROL &FE65, and I don't
think I want to know any more. Well, not without 64doc, the AUG and a pot of
tea beside me. (and a real beeb to try things on.) As a random side note I
have Alien 8 on disk, a copy given to me by a friend from the ULtimate
Collection, I seem to remember. I don't remember it taking him very long to
copy -- perhaps the protection was less evil on that edition.
