Hey, things happen, people screw up, maybe forget to include a file, sure. But if it's not just a case of forgetfulness but simply "Hey, it's free, so who cares", then that's different thing. Would you be grateful to someone for knowingly giving you a box full of broken dishes? Especially after you drove 20 miles and climbed eight flights of stairs to get them? I'm on dial-up, and it's incredibly annoying to spend 20 minutes downloading some large file only to find that half the stuff is missing and the whole thing is useless. I am very grateful to people who offer nice free stuff. I think they're exceedingly generous, especially since most of them actually PAY to give stuff away (web hosting and all). But I'll never thank someone for broken dishes, or a fan with no blades, or whatever other comparison you'd like to make. Free or not, crap is crap.
