Did you install the regular way from the original floppies (which count
installs by means of a devilish copy protection scheme) or did you
figure out a way to get around that? I've got a musician friend whom I
supplied with Mac hardware for MIDI use. He owns the original
diskettes for Performer 4.1 and 4.2, but mistrusts them because of their
age and would like to make backups. As it is now, if the hard disk
screws up, or the diskettes develop errors, he might eventually lose the
ability to use the software he has purchased and rightfully owns. Thus
it would be wise to make backups of either the installed software or the
diskettes. I must admit defeat in trying to accomplish that. 
(The regular bit-copy methods and dozens of more sophisticated tricks
failed, although I managed to identify some of the irregularities with
the diskettes.)

So, if you have any good advice, I'm all ears. Otherwise, well,
congratulations to having such an impressive configuration on your IIci.
I've got two of them, and exclusively used a IIci at my work past year
2000 (mostly to vex my MHz-hungry Windows-using colleagues), but
neither of my IIci:s has more than 32 MB RAM (lots of hard disk and
video resolution, though).
