Well there are entire companies which do nothing but sell screensavers for
Windows, if I am not mistaken. And entire companies with sell just themes.
It is not at all surprising that something that some enthusiast created during
his spare time (I hope I am not offending anybody by saying this) is not of
the same quality of something created by full-time effort. Anybody wants to
speculate on where Linux will be today if it weren't for companies that
full-time develop only Linux? [Notice I kept money out of the equation.]
