Just posting to say a big thank you to Stardock for their stance on copy-protection.
I was actually overjoyed when I installed the game on my work PC (yes, I get to play games during my lunch
) and discovered I didn't need the CD or even the CD-key(!) to play it. Finally I had a game which I could play at work, on my home PC and on my Laptop without having to carry a CD case around with me.
Showed the game off to collegues who loved the ship builder (yes, I spent way too long playing with that!), but they were all stunned when I told them about the lack of copy-protection. I'm positive many of them will be buying copies themselves in the next few days.
So thank you Stardock, may you be an inspiration to the rest of the industry!
