Yes, good point! It has bugged me for quite a while that many companies who take huge advantage of our work have done virtually nothing to sponsor manpower. If there is really that much interest in the Linux desktop as Jim always likes to point out those companies will make some revenue with selling desktop products. Therefore it would be in their own interest to invest some manpower in our project.
