In 1983 or so I bought a Japanese themed RPG for the Apple IIe published by EA.
It didn't like the disk drive we had, so the copy protection would reboot over and over.
There were only two models of disk drive for the Apple IIe.
EA has always been this way.
When I was a kid I got spore (on CD)
Luckily a family friend was good with computers and managed to force it to work anyway but it was my first and last experience with EAs bullshit.
