Richard and Josh have answered your other points, but I'd just like to
take issue with this one, hoping that I won't offend.

Comments like [yuk] will carry more weight if they are based on sound
informed reasoning and not on prejudice.  There is nothing wrong with
being ignorant about a subject - as long as you are prepared to do
something about it.  But if you are not, you are in danger of becoming
a religious zealot and we have ample evidence at the moment of where
that leads us.  Instead of disparaging the alternatives, learn about
them.  Know their strengths and their weaknesses.  It seems to me
that, so equipped, you might be in a position to give a more valuable
service to your Clients.

There is a lot to be said for Open Source, but even more to be said
for an Open Mind.   

73,
Ged.
