Indeed, technically-inclined people are often better served with Free
Software, and Free Software can also be a great choice for large
corporations who can either have on-site techsupport people or can hire
external support, but it is a lot more difficult to find commercial
support for merely non-techie user. This is mostly the domain of
proprietary software :-(
