Oh, they never said that they won't allow you on their lines, it's just as
soon as you are tagged as running a rouge OS on their lines they won't
support you are all, not even if you are trying to get support with their
supported OS.
    Hopefully Eric will pipe in and correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm fairly
sure I have the story (mosty) right.
