Interesting article. calgaryherald.com SNIP: >Beck adds that even if de Raadt wanted to make it commercial, his fellow programmers would abandon him. "Going commercial would probably kill it, in my opinion. There would be much more of a pressure to get it to market quickly, rather than getting it to market correctly."< - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I remember back in mid 90's, some brave people were saying, publicly, that MS dominance in the market will end one day. I think we are getting closer and closer. With free operating systems, that are extremely secure and stable, and these free systems have not intention of ever costing the end user anything......that's going to hurt any commercial product. Quality, not quantity.
