In reality they all are. So then you have to boil it down to the lowest common denominator.

Are you going to give them your money? Or are you going to use the free and open source variety.

Unless you’re a luddite, you’ve already made your choice and you’re going to pick one. Now we’re just re-arranging the deck chairs on the titanic.

(I’m a Linux user BTW, no way I’ll financially support the corruption at Microsoft)

My comment regarding commoditization & offshoring came from a Tech product manager. At the time, she was talking about Java commoditizing development jobs.

The same commoditization applies to Linux.

I’m replying from a Mac. I prefer Apple’s implementation over today’s desktop Linux.

I wish HP had released OpenVMS as an alternative to Linux.
