Though that's still the same thing, but different people. Rather than you making free with another's product, it's a third party doing the same thing (/them/ infringing). Of course we'd all like to avoid having to buy overpriced special spanners, special connectors, or spare parts. While I do see both sides of that equation, I've no sympathy for manufacturers that overprice and restrict access. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
