Pydev Extensions are only about $40. Most of the plugin's are $50 or less if not free... I'd personally much rather pay for the feature's I want, as I want them, then be forced bloated software (Visual Studio) that will cost hundreds to thousands of dollars, which will still require very expensive add-ons, as well as forces you to live in the MS Languages (Which is fine if you need that)
<br><br>I guess I don't see a problem with helping out active projects, I normally toss open source software that I use for any amount of time atleast one "tip". In the end, its still a ton cheaper then Visual Studio or some of the other options out there.

<br>><br><br>I played with Eclipse a little bit. I got annoyed that the plugins would<br>nickel and dime you to death. Pydev is free, but the additional features<br>in Pydev Extensions cost $. I heard there was a plugin for vi emulation.
