What about the "deeper meaning", ie, .org = nonprofit, .net = network provider etc, .com = commercial?
Call me a whiner, but I still believe if .com is taken, you shouldn't take the .org unless you're truly nonprofit.
"You're a whiner". :-) Actually, I concur completely. I _will_ give certain types of non-network-infrastructure sites slack in ".net". "price.net", as a site for a comparative pricing service site, for example. But if any commercial enterprises are in .org, then NSI has (completely unsurprisingly) been flouting it's own rules.
