I always thought that people on this list had it clear that for them what you complain is a business model and it certainly did not start yesterday. From the start those companies are attempting to own users. Apple started by tying software and hardware; gates by pushing binary blobs and menacing those who wanted to just share sources. I guess they now just fell confident enough that their consumers won't even understand/care if they can guarantee that speed difference isn't that much (which I think they can on most cases). Thanx 4 sharing anyway, I'm using info like those to buzz on applefriends ears. -- Do not forget that we are cattle on an animal farm which is managed and handled mostly by machines. Machines do what they are/were told to. What lies in between stdin and stdout and is not shown in stderr?
