- I have seen it done by a few people. There are disk units made in hong
- kong just for this purpose. There are people who just go to a video
- store, rent a few games, copy them onto disks (many of the units read
- and write ibm style 3.5s, so you can leave a large collection on a hard
- drive or whatever). I think that there is a FAQ about these devices in
- one of the netnews bases, but I don't follow the ins and outs of game
- piracy enough to pay attention.
