I just don't know... > Actually, I think it is worth it. And from my understanding, after reading the posts on opera's site, they are still discussing releasing the source to the public. Besides, many Mandrake users had no problems using kde before troll tech made qt free. As for netscape, I would be tickled to death to use their browser, but that code has been sitting around for quite some time, and there is still no sign of ( that I have seen ) a 5.0 release. I do agree that releasing the port as closed source would be a poor choice, but until someone releases a better alternative, then I'll shell out the 35$.
