it took me forever to wade through the 3 or 4 pages of questions. I've seen
worse, but it was still a lot of effort. But it's probably good to give them
a message that open source is worth it for them. It was a shame they never
got a version 6.

Btw, i got a little worried with the selection of kernel/distribution/memmory
they wanted to know. I actually want to use it on rh9 and fc3..... and possibly
at work.
