Coincidentally, just after I replied to this thread I received an email from one of our customers. In that email was a quote from one of the commercial search vendors. My jaw didn't drop because I've seen similar numbers from other commercial search vendors before, but.... I won't mention the customer nor the vendor, but I can tell you that the amount could put a couple of kids through a top-notch private college in the U.S. Talking about TOC reduction through use of open-source!
