We did learn something from the Mario brothers
I guess all that time spent playing with the Mario brothers gives you the false sense of being able to make giant leaps of logic.

Bottom line, you'll going to have to be creative and find a way to live in an open-source world, because that's where we are. Remember, MSFT started all this with a free browser. To me, and the rest of the world - literally, sees open-source as poetic justice. Let's give it all away for free. And just like MS said about Netscape, "the reason that they lost in the market place is because they had a terrible browser and they were not responsive to what the customer wanted." Well, there you have it, they have a terrible product line and it isn't what the customer wants.
