Hey thats a good point raised by Kalyan ... Well, thats open for debate. Let me put in my views ... I consider Open source the best for educational purposes coz alls available.. But for a very critical application where a small fault may cause damage of property ... can we trust Open source?? .. In such a case who will take the responsibility to fix the bugs. As against this, the customised proprietry softwares where the owner is responsible, there is lot more safety. Also thats the reason the industry today goes for NON-OPEN softwares.
