In some cases    you could probably write your own book on frustrations with the proprietary    programs shown here. In other cases, you’ll discover that the open source alternative    isn’t quite up to snuff yet. And, in other cases still, you’ll learn that some    proprietary programs are real gems, but that the open source advocate can replace    those gems with equally shiny objects from the open source repertoire.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/1A68B37A-AD8E-46D8-A94C-9F952C8F61F9/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
