Ah, so it's not about money and price.Alan Browneray carter
The only thing Linux users seem to crow about most is "it's free, it's freee@!!!!!!" - and then they complain about there not being a free app to do a particular thing...
It's not only about 'free' (which, BTW in the Linux world refers to 'freedom' instead of 'free' as in beer)
it's also about the endless upgrades which, IMHO, should not have to be purchased after you buy your software.Oh, so it's about money and price.
I have not complained yet about any particular lack. It's up to each individual to ascertain whether or not Open Source software will meet his/ her needs."Open Source software" has no inherent qualities that would make it meet a users need or not. It only pertains to the availability of the program's source code. And since the vast vast vast vast majority of people on earth have exactly no interest in program source code, this is a totally irrelevant trivia.
