So is copying APS's Alliance Power Tools 2.7.3:

This is *not* a free program.  I don't know why APS still allows it to
be on these anon-ftp sites, but that doesn't change the status.

I remember someone saying on the macbsd-general list (about a year
ago?)  that he asked APS about this and their responce was something
to the effect that they wouldn't care as long as the user was their
customer.  Well, I'm using it and I'm an owner of two APS' drives, but
I think it's still a grey zone at best.
