Mike: I don't think I was speaking of recipies (I'm glad you spelled it right 'cause I couldn't). I was speaking of business concerns. I never claimed that Star Office needed Motif, I said, Last I knew, it needed Motif and asked for a clarification. That was IMMEDIATELY after seeing a reference to it on Star's page. I asked Jordan if I was wrong about that and he corrected me. I'm satisfied with his answer. My only concern in this whole argument was whether there was a way to distribute commercial programs and protect the vendors and whose responsibility it was to focus on different markets, be they NT/95, BSD, Linux or what have you. I said hostile because I felt you came in when we went overboard with Star as an example and you came in shooting people and calling them stupid. I don't see how that educates anyone..... -Mike
