And you don't? I sure as heck expect that if I'm PAYING for
a commercial product, that I will have few problems with
it, or that if I do, there will be support there.... That's
why Mandrake (for example) doesn't support the MacMillan
distribution of their product...at least not directly.
MacMillan is in charge of providing support for their
version of the Mandrake distro.
