word!

screwing up with artists isnt what it should be about but constructiveness.
_purge and prune_ may have been the right thing from documentation and guide
lines but i bet there would have been a way to make both sides happy,
us that do want a decompressor and those that dont care about it. i'm not
that much into kernel hacking but there sure might be a way to have these 
two modules (pwc and pwcx) act happily together without violating kernel 
guide lines.

and there is yet another popular driver that is closed source. i hope you 
dont screw up on them as you did to nemosoft.

cheers,
mark anthony
