Seems to me Sunflash is "in support of R&E" since we all buy so many
Suns all the time. Just like they or any other vendor should be able
to use the Internet to telnet to my machine and research a software
bug that I've reported. It's just making my life easier in a
cooperative venture between customer and vendor to support my
university's researchers and educators. I'd rather receive this and
other sorts of marketing stuff as email rather than killing off
another tree. I can always type "d" or unsubscribe.
