- You won't see 99% of the software I use every day in a store. It's
- almost all GNU GPL'ed stuff, and there's nothing fishy about it... In
- fact, for the most part, it's been less buggy than the Mac (and
- Windows) stuff I used to use.

- I suppose many people will always tend to believe "if they're giving
- it away, it must not be any good", but if the software does what you
- want, and does it well, that's what matters.
