I think that's a good idea. I certainly wouldn't mind paying a sensible amount
if it meant i'd be getting a system that has increased support and also fewer
problems in other areas as well. Once that starts, though, i would be concerned
about the cost becoming too high over-time.
I think it's easy to forget that we get this great os for free and take the
work of those involved in developing it for granted.
