Yes. Basically I paid for the privilege (among many other privileges like timely updates from a fast server (I do use apt also, but what the heck)) of getting advanced access to the ISOs. Now the fact that others are getting them for free doesn't bother me in that I'm not feeling like I'm getting the short end of the stick and wasted my money. There are such things as implied ethics and implied agreements. Anyway I'll stop here, because we obviously have different frames of reference. > > Gabe > > ____________________ > BYU Unix Users Group > http://uug.byu.edu/ > ___________________________________________________________________ > List Info: http://uug.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list -- Michael L Torrie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ____________________ BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ ___________________________________________________________________ List Info: http://uug.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list
