In general, this doesn't much apply to z/OS. It might to z/Linux, I don't know. But I found it interesting because I remember a _few_ (very few) times something similar happening here. People getting angry that they've asked a question and have not gotten a solution "in a reasonable time frame". As if we were free tech support. This article on Slashdot is about an OSS company which allows cost-free downloads of their products, but paid support. Their "customers" are getting angry and abusive that the support is not free as well. I wonder if Dovetailed Technologies has any problem like this.
