If you're a professional programmer, or making an investment on your skills,
then buy this... I'm not against commercial software... what I'm against is
the idea that Linux makes it easier for us to "get away" with piracy.
The most proactive step against piracy is to not use commercial software
in the first place. I think it's not likely that free software will
require Kylix to build since that increase the barriers to entry of potential
developers. Instead Kylix is great for those who want to make commercial
apps against Linux.
