  26. Central Point used to market the option board first and foremost as a
  27. tool to copy copy-protected disks.  I doubt that this was the reason
  28. that it was discontinued.  I suspect that they stopped making it
  29. because they weren't selling enough copies, particularly when the
  30. business software programs stopped using copy protection schemes.
