If you're going to make absolute (and absolutely wrong) claims like that, you'd better be prepared to back them up!

Admittedly, free/GNU/open source/whatever software is off-topic, but have we really come to the point that I can't expect the courtesy of a straight answer when I question your foolish folk-wisdom proclaimations?

Calm down Carl.
I had an opinion and I expressed it. You're looking for an argument and I have no intention of arguing. Lets just let the sleeping dog sleep.

Now!, Now! Children... let's play nicely!!!

If you read the article (the URL) in my original post, the idea was these "free" options could have a Piggy backed program that watches every thing you do. That is why I Brought it up since one of the offers was from a Bonsai Buddy, I believe!

Hi Tuckerg,

When we two meet (and I hope we do), we'll probably laugh like hell, down a bunch of beers, and talk trees all night. I rarely agree with Ron but I gotta admit that I like the guy.

Cheers,
Carl

Hey, Bonsaial!
There are to Carl's on this forum... I doubt if I made you laugh, so I assume it was the other Carl!

How about Carl B and Carl R (or CLR)?
