It depends on the use. .ORG can often be more valuable than .NET to charities and organizations (often nearing the .COM price).

My .NET sales in '07 amounted to a whopping mid - high $Xxx, but my .ORG sales will be more than mid $X,xxx (with at least two more in the pipeline for '08), IMHO.

No. I get more unsolicited offers on .org than .net.

Righto.
It really depends on their use (and perceived potential uses), basically!

Again, generally speaking, I'll take an .ORG over an .NET all day long!

No, no rule. That's a myth. The market shows that noncom extension values vary considerably in relation to the .com version. And the majority will close the gap as the domain market continues to mature.

To be honest, I usually prefer a generic .ORG. It all really depends though.

I don't, In my experience if the .com isn't available, business will prefer to develop on the net rather than the org, YMMV.
