I'm a fan, I'd even ban mac/apple stuff if I could from my place of work. It's clear corporations are seeking more and more intrusive control of our applications both business and personal. A large and popular software vendor we have used for 7 years has approached us recently and wants to charge us a variable amount depending how integral their product is to our business. Now management understands the threat, and we are shifting resources to convert things to FOSS, and build up the software community more.
