Regardless of one's point of view regarding Squeak for commercial
purposes, I think it's a good thing to support the commercial
Smalltalks. For example, a Seaside business application can be
delivered on either VisualWorks or Squeak. It takes nothing away
from Squeak at all if you recommend VisualWorks for a project like
this, and you can of course refer to the very professional-looking
Cincom web site.

In my opinion it would be very bad for Squeak to be seen as a
competitor to the commercial systems, and very good for Squeak if
the commercial systems grow in credibility thanks to the positive
contributions of the Squeak community.
