On her blog, Jo Cook of Oxford Archaeology has the sad tale of what happens when a proprietary GIS company changes their licensing terms, making it too financially onerous to continue using their software. In the comments, Stefan Steiniger links to his useful tables comparing the features of many open-source GIS programs (most of which I mentioned in my recent series of posts). He has overview and functionality web pages, and also downloadable Word versions.
