Would copying the contents of a known good EPROM for a Omni VI, to a new 
EPROM and providing that to a person who owns an Omni VI in need of a 
new EPROM be a copyright violation? If that person owns the Omni VI, 
doesn't he own the right to have one good EPROM with the program intact? 
Even if he has to get it from someone who made a copy, other than 
Ten-Tec? Is Ten-Tec still providing these? Would it cut into their 
profits? Would there be a problem if the person providing the service 
does not charge for the programming?
