Re: Software Vendors

["Nelson C. Smith" <ncsmith@xxxxxxxx>]

If a vendor is putting out software with bugs (real bugs now, not
enhancements) in it and then expecting the customer to pay to fix the
vendor's errors, they should go broke fixing them and the sooner the better.
There is no excuse or justification for taking this kind of attitude toward
one's own customers.  We can only hope such vendors get well publicized.
