Need I kindly remind you that the program is being developed for
*free*, mainained for *free*, and distributed for *free* by talented
people who probably could have used the time invested in POV to make
money or otherwise benefit from their skills? Moreover, this very
server you, I and everyone else are posting to, is maintained for
*free* but there's no such thing as a free lunch and somebody, such
as, in this case, our sysop and POV-Ray Team coodrdinator Chris Cason
(who has also developed the Windows version of POV-Ray and the CDs
that you hate). These CDs are a way to raise some money for supporting
this newsserver as well as the Web and FTP servers of povray.org .

Read all messages in the povray.announce.frequently-asked-question
group very carefully, especially the bug report guide. Thank you.

Also, pay a visit to the VFAQ supported by Warp. The ten minutes
invested will certainly pay off.

Lastly, this group is not the most suitable for such questions. You
might have better luck in the povray.newusers group.
