Who, or is it whom you choose to be your supplier is entirely a decision you have to make based on your needs and desires. My point is that anyone offering such products should be to some degree held legally responsible to their worth. A "Fly by Night" operation is totally unacceptable to me. If you find it acceptable then so be it. Remember the adage: "You get what you pay for." By the way, calling me a Fascist when a significant number of users of Open Source are socialist is rather funny. -- Jerry ✌ jerry+fbsd@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or ignored.
