Publishing with free software
This article at Newsforge.com looks at a small Italian firm that publishes its book using only free software. The article points out that it took a while to get the publishing system up and running, but now it hums along quite smoothly.
And I think that's the key when shifting to new tools -- whether they be free or commercial software. There's always going to be a major investment in time to get the new software working in the way that you want it to.
If nothing else, this article proves that writing and publishing with free software can be done.
