Hello!
www.bungie.net - Bungie is the games company that Microsoft bought out
(explaining why Halo is XBox only etc). Recently they made the Marathon 2
engine open source.
So a microsoft subsidiary is supporting open source...just thought you might
like to know!
And I know that this is OT to even this OT thread, but I was thinking: what
if a person burnt 5 copies of Mandrake, and gave it free to 5 people, on the
condition that they would each burn 5 copies, and give it away with the same
condition? Pyramid schemes put to good use!
