You seem surprised?

The flames don't come from mentioning commercial endeavors using free
software - you'll find very few people who are actually
anti-making-money (a common misunderstanding about free software people)

The flames come when you start talking about linux + proprietary
software... (and some of them will be from myself, for the record). 
Free-as-in-speech and all that noise.

There's nothing wrong with making commercial products out of LAD
software - I doubt anyone's going to have a negative attitude about
making jack/linux/etc based drop-in networked synths/etc.  It's a pretty
cool idea, someone might even help. :)
