Quaid Road
Southedge-Wangetti Road Corridor (formerly and unofficially Quaid Road) is a stretch of road in Far North Queensland. It links the Captain Cook Highway at Wangetti on the coast just north of Cairns, to the Mulligan Highway at Southedge, just south of Mount Molloy. In November 1983 George Quaid wanted to legally build the road corridor with the approval of the Queensland Government, which was granted. In April 1988 the Australian Government made a regulation under the World Heritage Properties Conservation Act 1983 to prevent the road opening. However, the road was completed in early 1989 through some rainforest areas that were later declared Wet Tropics World Heritage Area in late 1989.

Quaid Software
Quaid Software, Ltd. was a software publisher based in Toronto, Ontario. The company's best known product was ''Copywrite'' which company president Robert McQuaid claimed was "for making legal backup copies of a protected program." The company was the subject to a lawsuit claiming that the software was used for making illegal copies. The lawsuit was dismissed because Section 117 of the US Copyright Act specifically allows: * the new copy is being made for archival (i.e., backup) purposes only; * you are the legal owner of the copy; and * any copy made for archival purposes is either destroyed, or transferred with the original copy, once the original copy is sold, given away, or otherwise transferred. The Court concluded that, because of federal copyright law, its provisions (Louisiana License Act) were preempted (by the US Copyright Act) and Vault's license agreement was unenforceable.
