I think that we can provide many other analogies, but no of them is
really applicable.
Last, but not least: I'm pretty sure, that zPRIME creators thoroughly
checked legal issues at the early stage of the project. Maybe their
conclusion is disputable, but it's not as obvious as "regular" software
piracy.
BTW: In the times of 9672's I was offerred to enable more CPs *without*
IBM's permission. Obviously I refused, but I would be very interested in
watching court trial in such case. Especially outside of U.S. As far as
I read our Intelectual Property Code from 1994 it would be hard to find
what's wrong...
