Although I never found it until too late, I find it kinda dishonest
charging to access stuff people chipped in for free, after all Dan pays
people to write for LEM and doesn't make it compulsory to pay. If I had
contributed a significant amount of stuff to MacFixIt I'd start asking
for royalties, 5 cents per access per item, if you had a lot on there
you'd be raking it in :).
