Vim, for example, makes me 10$/yr at least, but doesn't cost anywhere near that. It's better prices than Office.

Sure, but it's not a replacement for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook or any of the other Office programs.

The real question is, if vim cost $100, would you pay or would you use a product you didn't like as much, that wasn't as efficient, or as productive? How much would you pay for a Supervim that earned you an extra $5k/yr?
