My Boss doesn't like open source tools because there is no one
he can go sue if they screw up and cost the company money.
He read through the license for GCC where, paraphrased,
it says "we don't guarantee this will work for anything",
at least that was his interpretation.
Of course he never read the 52+ pages of the commercial
compiler license we are using, at $4k per seat, that says the same
thing in a lot more words. It appears he just assumes it
is a commercial company so they can be sued.
Where do I send my resume.... :-(
