EASTERBROOK to http://www.catb.org/esr :-) "People willingly pay for quality software even when they can get free (but imperfect) substitutes. Open Office is a free, open-source suite of word processor, spreadsheet and presentation software, but the proprietary Microsoft Office has many more users. Gimp is a free, open-source image editor, but the proprietary Adobe Photoshop enjoys the lions share of the market. ... The GPL and open-source software have nothing to fear from the antitrust laws." Oracle et al (Microsoft will probably join soon) will now supply ancillary Linux et all (including Mono) support services with a vengeance. Goodbye Red Hat, Novell and IBM in thier "services" business model. What a perfect work, smarty EASTERBROOK. regards, alexander. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
