They'd only need to ship to people who bought the laptop from them, since that is all the GPL requires. Since not all laptop buyers would want the source code, I doubt it would be prohibitively expensive. It might even be cheaper than having it on a website, given bandwidth costs, and that bots exist that will download it anyway..... Either way preparing the content is likely far more expensive than distribution of the content. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
