- When Avant-Garde went belly-up, they orphaned a product that worked. I have
- had some success disassembling the binaries and patching them to do a little
- customization, but it would really help to have some of the technical spec on
- the PC Ditto II hardware and/or software. Does anyone have information on
- either on these, either from the original company or through reverse
- engineering? What is the legal status of a product after its originator
- abandons it? One of the things promised when we bought PC Ditto II was that
- there would be software upgrades. Obviously, we can't get blood from a stone,
- but if the technical info were released to the public domain, it would be nice.
- Or am I the only one left who still uses an emulator instead of a cheap PC?
