Open Source does not rival in quality?
I just read an interesting article that illustrates how open source technology is still an iffy when your corporate customer is after quality. Of course, this may seem obvious at first, but it may really take a while for open source to take off as a mainstream platform rather than a cheaper alternative. Disturbing? Well, you be the judge.

This is the latest poll from EDC that sees open-source products ranking strongly but ultimately surpassed by their better-polished rivals. A poll of 1,200 developers rating 11 IDEs in July placed Eclipse and NetBeans last based on quality of features. IBM's Rational Application Development suite was top, followed by Microsoft's Visual Studio and Borland Software's Delphi. (source)
