Gee, I paid $600 for Idris.  It didn't even come with a decent editor (ve???).
I haven't received any notification through the mail about X-Windows, or any
other additions to Idris (like a decent editor).  I was under the impression
that the reason we had to pay so much for Idris was that we were going to get
lots of support!  What support?  I have to wait until I see a posting on the
net before I find out that X-Windows (not even X11) is now available, and I'll
probably have to shell out another $50 for it?!  Tell me this isn't true!
