From Jargon File (4.4.4, 14 Aug 2003) [jargon]:
support
n.
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
(sadly, this is not a joke or exaggeration). A hacker's idea of
`support' is a teete-a-teete with the software's designer.
