I did? I didn't say "Make them buy overpriced proprietary stuff to use it with
free software", I said "If they already happen to have the bad proprietary
stuff, why try to convince them off the full free ensemble where they have to

switching one component at a time?" Applies both for Mac/ProTool and
Mac/Motu...
