Nobody forces anyone to do anything, Open Software can be nice but there 
is always room for Commercial software.

How many years did it take Windows to have a nice looking interface? Zip 
right off the bat it was fine, How many years did it take Linux to have 
a nice looking interface, many years and many of the Open software still 
looks like a cartoon, why? The geeks that make that stuff rather work 
from the command line so the interface is not a priority, commercial 
software on the other hand has to appeal to the customer or it doesn't 
sell, if it doesn't sell then they can't afford that BMW. Greed is a 
great motivator to make things better.

My uncle had a large farm in Cuba, him and two partners bought large 
pieces of land, and combines to harvest the crops, they were doing well, 
buying more land, and growing a ton of food. Along came communism, his 
land was no longer his, but it belonged to the State, they took his 
combines to be shared with other farmers, they didn't take care of them 
after all they didn't have to make sacrifices to acquire them and were 
wrecked in not time, the result was no food production. And idiots here 
want Socialism and Communism they have no clue about what happens when 
Socialist and Communist take over.
