You're right... I just don't happen to believe that any commercial 'Amiga' entity could expect to make a profit on open source software. The platform has not reached the 'critical mass' necessary for the various open source models to be profitiable... I mean even in the x86 world (which most certainly has achieved 'critical mass') many a firm latching on to the open source craze have withdrawn, are dying, or dead. Few actually are turning a profit.
For those groups expecting no profit, well they are flourishing... But only becuase they are willing to donate their time, or a commercial entity is sponsoring them for a tax write off (or a group og f die hards are interested enough to donate their own cash for a project, ala AROS and Amizilla).
