Flurry is open source, so they didn't have to do anything to get it. I think it would be great if Apple included a lot more of the open source savers with the OS; they don't bundle too many now when you consider that four of them are just slide-savers.

I think what they did to Watson was pretty low, though. Would it be that hard to just say, look, we're going to end future sales of your product, so we'll buy the rights to it. I know Apple included a lot of previously shareware apps in System 7' in this case they won't actually be incuding his code, but they could still work out a similar contract.

10.2 will probably also put TinkerTool out of business, but no big deal when it's freeware, and it certainly puts a lot of pressure on Entourage and Now Software, but again I think people have less sympathy for commercial companies, whereas the Watson thing is a big corporation picking on a little developer.
