There were tons of Doom and Quake clones, and nobody cared.
I would suspect the people spewing profanity are 18 years old and need a life. Don't let them worry you, as long as you don't have access to the source. But make certain you dont disassemble the commerical code at all.
Was not IE a clone of Netscape which was a dressed-up clone of Mosaic? WordPerfect was pretty close to WordStar....
Rackmounting is the only way to go. Not only is everything at work in racks, but most of my equipment at home. I usually by used racks--you can get them for very little at many electronic or university surplus houses--and then pay a little more for a rackmount case.
Rackmount cases store more equiment in the least floor space. They also provide good cooling and solve most of the cabling issues.
Shelves are okay for little operations, but there is a reason every professional ISP and computer center has rackmount equipment.
