They are mandated to make available the source to every Purchaser of the equipment. If you are the purchaser they will have to show you the source. Infact the product has to have an offer for obtaining the source and a copy of the gpl - in this case hard copy since the probably dont have space to store / display the entire licence. -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
