"Time is money" implies Time = (some constant) x money We already know that velocity = time x distance so it would make just as much sense (cents?) to say that velocity = money. Also my grandma used to say that "A stitch in time saves nine". So logically we can deduce that she must have been saying that "A stitch in money saves nine". Some people say that "money is the root of all evil". So therefore "A stitch in the root of all evil saves nine"? And of course time (divided by constant) is obviously the root of all evil. How do i value time at work? If i am fixing some Windows problem and i happen to mention that linux would not even have the problem in the first place and while fixing the Windows problem i chat about how easy it would be to set-up a dual-boot then how much is that time worth? If i am watching tele with the family how do i value that time? Does that time have greater or lesser value than time spent playing frisbee in the park with my son or watching him perform in a play. Who do i charge for my time in those cases? If i do voluntary work and get no pay is my time worthless or priceless? If i invite a newspaper reporter to report on a story on an event my business is involved in and linux "just happens" to get into the story then who do i charge for that? Who do i pay for random acts of kindness people do for me during the day? Please, keep your stick on the ice (thanks Landor) Regards from Tom :)

This is a bug, which Ubuntu is designed to fix. Non-free software is holding back innovation in the IT industry, restricting access to IT to a small part of the world's population and limiting the ability of software developers to reach their full potential, globally. This bug is widely evident in the PC industry. Steps to repeat: 1. Visit a local PC store. What happens: 2. Observe that a majority of PCs for sale have non-free software pre-installed. 3. Observe very few PCs with Ubuntu and free software pre-installed. What should happen: 1. A majority of the PCs for sale should include only free software like Ubuntu. 2. Ubuntu should be marketed in a way such that its amazing features and benefits would be apparent and known by all. 3. The system shall become more and more user friendly as time passes. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~algeriatul Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~algeriatul More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
