Don't change my words!!! I said you ***CAN*** buy proprietary iron.
And it doesn't have to be first.

You're right. *IFF* I can find all the things I need in open iron
($3000) AND open software ($100000+time & effort) I might save
~$200 (.02%). But those are mighty big ifs.

However, If I can get the software I want I "DON'T HAVE TO WORRY
ABOUT WHAT THE HARDWARE I GET". Once again "I CAN get the proprietary
iron if it works for me better, OR I can get the open one (if you
can really find one).

As I can see you have no clue about this subject either, this is
the last I say to you about it.
