A look at wiki reveals it includes Crossover Office and some sorta
download support. Why anyone would pay for these small features, I
can't say, but I have nothing against Linux for $$$. I almost
payed for a commercial Linux application, once, and may still do so.
Bottom line, no one is extorting buyers or dictating terms. It's
still choice. Much different than what RMS calls "jail made cool", as
he refers to the Apple Empire.
