Thursday here, a slow evening. Time for a new poll. This poll might require you to think a bit extra: it asks you to vote not for your favorite application, but which OSS application, in your opinion, has achieved high standards, performance, features and ease of use when compared to the best of breed of the closed source world. Read more for more explanation and voting.

I don't know if I'd call Apache an app or not, I can see it both ways,
but netcraft seems to suggest that it is by far the best option.
Its also pretty easy to set up in os x. Hit a button. Apache!
I'm surprised more people didn't vote for gcc. The professors at my university tend to slam gcc and claim it generates poor code ... but I'm not sure I agree with them --- and either way what else supports so many damn platforms with so little trouble. GCC is relatively painless to use. When you combine it with other things I think it beats the hell out of msvc. I'm not sure I'd say its better than IOCC though.
