Not to beat a dead horse...but we all can have an impact on these guys.

Write a VERY pointed email explaining your position as a web developer.  If
you do contracting work, convince the company that you _will_ never use
their product, nor suggest it to any of your *many* customers. . .and will
further go to any pains to direct traffic to their competitors.  Period.

we are the ones with the power. . .we are the GEEKS!  And the NERDS!  I mean
those two words in the best of light, with the greatest of respect and
pride.  :D

Cheers,
Ward
