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 
spend more money on new hardware if they could just do a smooth transition by 
switching one component at a time?" Applies both for Mac/ProTool and 
Mac/Motu...
