I completely agree! I also have a fair amount of "Open Source" programs, apps, scripts, etc. The open source community (without a doubt) keeps the big corporate software companies honest. At least somewhat. I firmly believe if the "Open Source" community DID NOT EXIST; All of little people would likely be paying Microsoft, Apple & even Google $2,000 - $5,000 a year - just for an OS (Operating System)! In addition, every program, app, etc would be pay before you run as well. There would likely be "some" trial-ware of course, but many consumers would be pay up front...
