- When I bought DiskSalv 3 there was no registration slip, and
- if I remember correctly, there was mention in the electronic
- documentation of "free upgrades" via FTP or BBS...
-
- Actually DiskSalv solved one problem while imposing a whole
- new one in my case. You see, I'm the unfortuante user of a A2090 with
- a Rodane drive. DiskSalv solved the read/write errors I kept getting,
- but totally trashed the file structure... The drive is now called
- "NODOS" and is absolutely useless. Well maybe not entirely useless,
- the data is still there, thankfully DiskSalve redeems itself by being
- able to "Salvage" the files. I just wish it were able to reconstruct
- the file structure, instead of my having to buy another hard drive to
- get the files back... I mean I was going to buy a new drive anyway,
- but if this should happen everytime you use DiskSalv to "Repair," then
- it's really not worth the money now is it.
