Your example is a much more complex application. SimplyPM is not  
complex. It's a web application. It's HTML. It loads in a browser.  
How are the open source technologies that relate to web development  
lacking in any way compared to closed source web development  
technologies.

I stand by my statement that their development team are idiots for  
not being able to write HTML that runs in all the major browsers.

And, for the clarify, my comments had nothing to do with Microsoft.  
They were about  people that break the mold for no logical reason.  
Yes, MSIE has the market share, but it's just as easy to program it  
in standards compliant code so that it works in all browsers as it is  
to not, so why would you choose to not?
