- Would you explain this? SCO gives 30 days free support with each copy,
- and this is a copy you bought and registered, right? And they wanted you
- to pay for free support?
-
- Could you give more details? When you called to register your copy did
- they take the registration and then tell you they wouldn't support it,
- or what? What did the dealer who sold you this copy do? Did s/he call
- SCO or try to help?
-
- I've never heard of SCO refusing to support a new registered copy
- before. Please tell us more.
