I'm well aware of the commercial support offered by BSDi, and telenet. Those are steps in a good direction. It's just that sometimes people will knock Solaris, HP-UX, Tru64, AIX etc etc, solely because they are commercial. I wasn't setting out to start a flame war, nor do I think you were, it was a discussion, this is what these lists are for afterall, aren't they? Cheers... > -- > Chad R.
