Um, waitasec. Didn't you recently post an argument
about how giving software away is a bad thing?

Why yes, you did:

And not only that, you posted that hardware
manufacturers should not give away their intellectual
property, as that is a bad business model:

Aren't you implying that Apple should do what IBM did
(open up their hardware specs to gain more market
share), in contradiction to what you expressed
earlier?

It's okay; you stand in good company:

myself. I am large, I contain multitudes."
