Be truthful with yourselves, for MOST of you, having access to the source code is nothing more than a banner to wave over your head. Most have never even looked at any source code...never mind knowing what to do with it. The open source arguement is moot for the majority of people out there. Get over it!
So BeOS isn't open source and isn't free, who cares? How many of you have actually DOWNLOADED and made disks to install Linux vs Buying (ie paying for) it? 5%? 8%? Its probably much less than that. That is a silly arguement. Not open source? Again, how many Linux users are actually spending their time hacking the kernal vs using somebody else's work? Mmmm Hmmm, I thought so.
