Really? Is Gimp better quality than Photoshop or Aperture? If you were doing
photo work for a living would you bet your paycheck on it? I wouldn't. You may
not always get what you pay for with commercial software, but there are plenty
of instances where it is true. There are plenty of instances of half-baked OSS
solutions like Gimp to compete with commercial apps.

for with open source.
Whereas with commercial software you most certainly do not get what you
pay for.
