[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mucus: [QB] I dunno, its my experience that those armies of brainy schoolkids typically want money just as much, if not more than the rest of us. If not to pay for tuition, than for the latest pop culture items or entertainment. For all the greatness of the open-source software, I really doubt it will ever replace commercial software. While there's a certain "nerdy coolness" in programming Linux derviatives or the latest Mozilla release to fight against "the man." (i.e. Microsoft)... you'll hardly find the same monentary-less motivation for programming bank software or medical software. Thats the crux of things, isn't it? In most cases you get what you paid for, and programming is hardly different. Business programming is where the money really is, not home users. The last thing you want, is for the bank to go down for a day...or the power management system for the province to crash, because they skimped a few dollars on salary costs. Your mileage may vary.
