Actually, providing technical support for open source products at a fee is
a very common business model. Cygwin built its entire business around it.
Companies such as RedHat, Mandrake and Progeny have similiar business
models.

Steve-
Thanks for the quick response.
I found that you can obtain the IBM JDK,JRE by downloading IBM WebServices
If IBM could state how their JDK,JRE is compatible with other environments
(Ant specifically) then I would be more willing to replace the JAVA_HOME
IBM like Microsoft doesnt offer any support unless you're willing to pay
them.
which to my way of thinking runs counter for the justifications of open
source
Thanks again,
Martin Gainty
