You mean proprietary development ;)
Free software can certainly be used commercially.
Master of Reality:
the BSD(s) are fast and usually clean on a default install. I havent used them much (used OpenBSD the most tho) and they're supposedly more like UNIX than Linux (at least redhat) is. BSD does some things different than Linux, some things are better and i dont know if much is worse than Linux. Trying it out is the only way to tell if you like it.
voidmain:
When you take BSD code and proprietize it (is that a made-up word of mine sort of like evildoers?) you are legaly "stealing" the open source code. That is the kind of shit Microsoft does and it's why I prefer the GPL over the BSD/X11 licenses. It does not legally allow people to hide the code from me.
choasforages:
i know, but the X-window system would not be were it is today with the X11 license. then agian, i would never put aything i write under a license that can't be enforced by bloodthirsty lawyers/*as long as they are working for you, they don't bite too much, but get one with DMCA-titis and they rip you to pieces and leave nothing left ;) */ or be stolen in anyother way, and turned propriatary.
TheQuirk:
I got a great idea!
"BelgOS 2004!" Priced at a mere $300 USD, it is one of the most stable operating-systems for the x86 platform. It's powered by a large number or developers, because it's (insert freeBSD or NetBSD here) in binary format, packaged, and with a price tag.
Buy now! A great alternative to open-source and microsoft!
