IF we haven't signed the agreement, we could have trouble getting
the passwordks quickly - or get someone in trouble for giving them
to us. HP will only have *real* control over this if they move to
site-specific passwords.
 
There should be a better solution to this problem. Why doesn't the
"unsupported" status of these utilities protect HP from misuse of them
by us -- if that is what this is about? Or, am I missing something?
