This is all very interesting. It also has nothing to do with the Subject 
line.

Please change the subject, unless you don't care about other people 
finding your potentially helpful information. If I were searching the 
LAU archives for data regarding Scotsmen running from the rain while 
tape recording themselves cleansing vinyl with common household 
detergents... well, I don't think a subject line of "Companies Refusing 
to Release/Permit Linux Drivers" would be quite the investigative cue ...
