You're call, thats whats great about this open source stuff.  As far
as support goes though, you're only hurting yourself.  Especially if
you have odd hardware.  I mean its not like we're gathuring this
information to kill your kittens.  We're trying to figure out who uses
our stuff and for what purpose so we can focus better on that.
