Re: Open Source RPG ?

Wildly popular is an understatement. The last number I heard
on unix variations was just over 200. Now if you are a fortune
500 size company, which flavor are you going to pick ?

Would you really base a corporate sized accounting system on
a o/s that's supported by several folks who like to dabble in
programming ?

Those programs you mention are popular and in some cases very
successful, but to who ??? Mostly gear heads who love the art
form and the cheap prices.
