Agreed, but sending the demo and one full copy would have been nicer.
One copy of a network game makes you want to buy more... Giving away
a copy of a game makes others lust for it, when they don't get it.

I agree, to a point. Where is Redhat? They have $$$ to burn these days. :)
Deepak listed these, does someone have email addresses for them?
I'd like to drop each of them a line.... a LUG specific address would be
best... Nothing nasty, just a simple email saying that Suse, Caldera,
LinuxCare, LinuxCentral, Applix, and Loki had all sent things, and
that time was running out if they wanted their named displayed and
their products demoed.
