I was hanging out in the computer lab at school, playing the PC version of Rogue, when a exasperated teacher walked into the lab, saying that her students were getting annoyed at having to swap in the real floppy when it started... Well, let me fix that for you... Gathered all the floppies, started copying the original with CopyII PC, and handed out games that would not *ill you by the copy protected mafia. Later that day, the lady came in and reported no problems, and handed me the original disk. I wish I knew how many kids got into gaming after that.
