When reading this thread, I couldn't avoid remembering having read a few 
days ago, in the context of MS auditing schools in Oregon?, that Office 
automation software and OSes do not longer deserve paying the "premium" 
of brands (read MS Office), as it is becoming a "generic drug" (a 
commodity, in other terms, read OpenOffice, kOffice, abiword/gnumeric, 
you name it).

I think OR mapping tools (most development tools, in fact) are reaching 
the same status.

This is a sign of maturity in software engineering. One of the few I've 
seen lately.
