One reason to use SVN - you can't afford better (Score 0, Redundant)

Yes, yes, yes, yes... all this lies again about how good SVN or CVS are...

Yes, they are pretty good... only when you can't afford something better!!

Clearcase is much, much better, but it is not for programmers wanabees...
you *MUST* understand what you're doing... yes, it is like saying Visual
Basic is better than C/C++ or Java just because it is simple... Come on!! It
is crap, just like CVS and SVN are crap.

Clearcase is much, much better than cheap-free-version-control-software.
SurroundSCM is better, and systems like PlasticSCM or Accurev even better...
The downside? You HAVE TO pay...

The same old story... free is good, when you pay you get better.
