I agree
Yes, nothing in the IT world is black and white, thats very true. I've tried to customize Microsofts really bad Sharepoint software and seen how bad proprietary software can be! But then again, evertime I open up some GPL item flaoting around the net Im always shocked at all the dirty little hands that get in the cookie jar. I mean, so much of open source is too many great programmers along with too many bad programmers adding to the source. Thats my point with the mediocrity thats coming soon with cheaper software.
