Here's a quote I got from Bram Moolenaar's sig (he's the vim creator nad maintainer) : Q: What is the difference betwee open-source and commercial software? A: If you have a problem with commercial software you can call a phone number and they will tell you it might be solved in a future version. For open-source sofware there isn't a phone number to call, but you get the solution within a day. Funny, and also rather realistic. -D -- Through love and faithfulness sin is atoned for; through the fear of the Lord a man avoids evil. Proverbs 16:6 |
