I'm the only one here who cares about open source?  :'(

I use Apophysis, JWildfire, Fractal Explorer (fractal imagery tools), The Gimp and Open Office. I would be lost or have to spend thousands of dollars on commercial software without them.

Not sure how open Firefox is these days, but there are some functions my son uses (within Google FFS!) for online schoolwork where Chrome does NOT work. I keep Firefox up and running.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Firefox is still open source. Enter about:license in the address field and hit return.

Yes, it is. I am spending most of my time developing stuff for an open source database, right now, and it's pretty awesome. It's free but it's also robust and reliable, and if you find a bug, it gets fixed faster than it would on a commercial product.
