"I think I speak for the Linux community when I say that commercial closed-source software has no place on our operating system. Linux was written by the people, for the people, and it makes me sick to see companies cashing in on our hard work."
No I don't think you speak for the Linux community. If you speak for the linux community then maybe you should ask Transmeta to open the source code for their morphing technology. People got to make a living. Even Linus has to eat. I don't think you should judge a piece of software, that sounds like you probably haven't even tried, just on the basis that it is binary only and you may have to shell out a few dollars for it. Paul is a great programmer. Linux and the Amiga community need more artisans like him.
