@Muchemi,

 

imho:

 

Please also highlight the MAC OS practises too in the context of this thread.

 

Also, when we want to bash Oracle, I very much support that they are justified to charge for mysql. As classic example was the Access Kenya website which I read some years back cost around 10million? Now if the web site developer used free-code to literally make commercial millions, then this is a complete abuse of the freedoms that defeat the progress.  

 

Proprietary software can work and also reduce costs of ownerships. So far I've not heard of growing Mobile sector economies asking for free phones, but the phone manufacturers through mass markets practises have maintained buiness flow and manufacturing plants that have vitutally dropped the prices to extremely affordable prices.

 

Me thots. :-)
