Hiren's BootCD - незаменимый инструмент, используемый многими компьютерными техниками и системными администраторами. На одном загрузочном CD собраны десятки самых популярных программ и утилит для работы в режиме DOS. Это утилиты для работы с жестким диском, его восстановления и диагностики, утилиты диагностики всех узлов компьютера, файловые менеджеры, утилиты для работы в сети, а также многие другие. Hiren's BootCD избавляет от необходимости держать под рукой десятки и десятки дисков с необходимыми в ежедневной работе программами. Но, к сожалению, из-за того что практически все программы, собранные на Hiren's BootCD являются платными и созданы различными производителями, данный диск оказывается вне закона и его распространение и использование является нарушением законов разных стран об авторских правах и других, непозволяющих свободно распространять эти программы. С другой стороны, я не слышал ни об одной более-менее равнозначной законной альтернативе этому диску. Ведь если посчитать, сколько же может стоить подобный диск, будь он выпускаем официально, его стоимость наверняка превысила бы не одну сотню долларов, если не сказать больше. Можно лишь гадать, сколько еще новых версий этого уникального диска появится в сети, пока все компании-разработчики программ, собранных на Hiren's BootCD договорятся между собой и выпустят, наконец, официальный диск, который сможет стать достойной легальной альтернативой Hiren's BootCD. При этом не последнюю роль в этом будет играть конечная стоимость этого диска для потребителя.
