All right - but I think some newbees cannot distinguish between
"applications that they have ordered and spend a lot of money for" and
"applications that are kindly developed for all and voluntarily".
You cannot compare open-source programs with commercial closed source
because the close source developers can build in the open-source code and
fix some bugs - which they hold for themselves in close code. So we'll
always be behind the commercial applications.

Well done and you even go all the way! Other people with no idea of
creating programs take others time for granted.
But even newbees can create bug-reports when they have found no fix in the
newsgroups. And a well developed report is very usefull.
