Jim,
I'm shocked that people think this is the norm. I don't know of any vendor we 
deal with that charges for bug fixes. Now, if we want it to work differently 
from the way it was intended to work, then we're talking customization and 
charges. But when a program blows up, you can't charge a customer to fix it. 
This is absurd.
