convincing companies of that.
IMHO, somebody should pass a law that says 'If a company refuses to
support a product, all documentation (schematics, sources, etc) should be
made available to owners of said product (or anyone :-))'. And with stiff
penalties for companies who loose documentation. It would be a lot more
use than some of the silly laws we have these days.
Alas none of us are in a position to pass laws...
