Yes, but if most people like me (strictly hobby stuff) use
Eagle, there still seems to be little point in using
something else as long as it will work for what I want.
For a minute there I thought you were making a point about
the iPhone.
If, OTOH, you look at the trend of *new* users, the
trend is moving in the **open source** direction. Most
folks don't like the notion of *changing the rules down
the road* as Cadsoft has done surreptitiously.
e.g. KiCAD doesn't have the size/layers limitations of a
demo AND IT DOESN'T LOCK YOU OUT OF YOUR FILES.

Maybe you've used Windoze so long that you are used to
being treated like a thief. I find that most people
don't like that sort of behavior. Giving money/support
to companies/people who treat you badly seems foolish to
me.
