"Are you interested in saving money, or are you only interested
in TALKING about saving money?  Every dollar you needlessly spend
on expensive software which could be replaced with free equivalents
is another dollar that you can't use for something which is more
important -- anywhere from buying equipment while the prices are
depressed, to, oh, I don't know...staying profitable during this
economic downturn."
