On the other hand, I download much bigger files weekly. Download about
500K daily just in newsgroups to my offline reader. But, as I said, I see
nothing wrong in selling this stuff, if it's worthwile and people want to
pay for it. I just paid for enhancements to Linux, and that's a totally
public domain OS. Most linux hackers work for free (actually they are doing
some excellent resume building, but that's beside the point) but I have no
problem supporting them by paying for something if it's really good and I
want it. Maybe someone here would like to undertake a port of XyWin or Xy4
to OS/2 and market that, like Dragonfly did with Xy3 and Notabene years
back. Hey, if there's a market for something -- why not? I don't really
understand Joe's objection, I guess.
