And you know sugar buns, Sun is filled with faliable humans - and things
call fall through the cracks, no matter how perfect the system may be.

Yes, this is an laptop discussion group; I don't even know why the
person originally posted here knowing full well that his issue had
nothing to do what so ever with laptops - his was a Solaris issue
relating to the commercial product being sold by Sun and supported by
Sun - therefore, he shouldn't be a cheapskate expecting 24/7 instant
support from an online mailing list with volunteers.

Yes you do have a gross missunderstanding of what a forum is, this is a
mailing list for volunteers to help each other out; if your issue is a
matter of life, death and losing money - then again, I say, don't be
such a cheap skate and purchase the support that you need instead of
expecting volunteers to be at your beakening call.

Then you need to do some reading. Again, we aren't paid to help you; any
help you do receive on this list, you should be thanking your lucky
stars.

Or maybe he shouldn't be so cheap expecting the 'community' to support
him at the drop of a hat.
