It never ceases to amaze me the endless number of "software developers" wishing to develop a "commercial" product using "free" software. Similar to the all fired up young lady, extremely excited about being an MSN beta tester. Who was admitting she was spending way too much time testing for Micekysoft, and wondering why she could not get paid to beta test. I proposed that maybe there was way too many like her willing to do it for free.
