Doublespace comes to mind as well, which is (was) Stacker Lite without
Stac's permission.  It was also horrendously inferior in features and
was prone to crashing hard disks.  The newer versions of it did
fix some of the bugs though.

I find it hard to believe any one would DEFEND a company of stealing
code.  That's ludicrous.
