Rubbish! If I am having difficulty connecting to Demon from my Linux
box, I can expect help in places such as demon.ip.support.unix and
(possibly) demon.ip.support.other

If I post to those groups with a query as to why Linux does not support
XYB brand of "Win" modem, or if I telephone to the help line with such a
support question, I would expect to be told "we do not support the
operating system" - there is on "fine" distinction necessary.
