[LAD] Forgive me, for I have sinned, or: toss your Macintosh, as fast and wide as you can.

I am very serious, Neil. I am glad that your personal experience is
different. You were able to build a system that works well for you. As a
person who works a lot with multimedia, I can tell you that a proprietary
video editor will be in most cases much more stable than a floss one. And
why shouldn't it? Teams are working on it 40 hours every week, all year
round.

Nothing in the concept of FLOSS promises floss software to actually be more
high quality or more stable. All it guarantees is that you can distribute
it and modify. So why would it magically be more stable than proprietary?
