I have no objection whatever to people charging for their work, but within the law. Retrospective charging is not. I wouldn't dream of telling someone I was making a gift of something - anything - and then enforcing payment for it after my gift had been accepted. This "have a beer" argument is spurious and utterly disingenuous. "Fancy a pint? OK Here it is. That's 20 Euros, please". Pathetic, Michael, truly pathetic. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
