Dams pointed us to a little story about Zend and PHP, on Red Herring. As the contents is somehow correct, they did not succeed to make a stupid mistake:

Zend’s business model is to give away an open-source scripting engine and sell a “closed-source” line of PHP development tools. Its main competition comes from PHP.net, a site where developers download free PHP tools.

Guys, what’s about making your job of journalists and get a clue about what you are talking about? This question is not only for the author of this story, but to all journalists writing about PHP without having a damned clue about it.

Note to self, there is however a little hope:

Zend Technologies founders Andi Gutmans and Zeev Suraski did not invent Personal Home Page, an open-source scripting language used to create dynamic web applications, but few would argue that they deserve credit for its growing popularity.
