support

<job>

After-sale handholding; something many software vendors promise but few deliver. To hackers, most support people are useless - because by the time a hacker calls support he or she will usually know the software and the relevant manuals better than the support people. A hacker's idea of support is an electronic exchange with the software's designer.
