    Did you go to the Power Source web site?

    The contact e-mail address at the bottom is a *Hotmail* addr.

    The persons involved with that site haven't come in contact with $500,000.00 in their entire exigious lives.

    Wait wait! LinuxOne wouldn't lie to us...

    Maaan I read slashdot way too much.
    Here goes this has already been talked about in previous LinuxOne stories. The website that claims to have bought $500,000 of software looks like a gaudy high school kid's site and is run by a webmaster with a hotmail account. A slashdot reader has called the number on the website before and woken the website's owner out of bed (it's his home #).
    That doesn't sound like someone who has $500,000 to pay for software, now does it?

    Motley Fool ran a story debunking them a while ago that was posted on slashdot...the references to waking up the owner of the powersource site appeared in a slashdot post before they appeared on motley fool.

  3. Powersource email address gone by PapaZit · · Score: 4 · on CyberNet Plans an IPO & Motley Fool on LinuxOne

    I sent a friendly note to abuse@hotmail.com mentioning that ps84@hotmail.com was using his email address for business, and pointed them at the Power Source web page where it's listed.

    For those that don't know, using a Hotmail address for business is a violation of the Hotmail Terms of Service.

    I got a note back from abuse@hotmail.com yesterday. They've cancelled the account. So, at this point, Power Source doesn't even have an email address.

    Mmmmm, spam.

    -Complete Internet Marketing Kit CD-ROM"

    Down at the bottom of the page there are details of their 'complete E-Mail Marketing Package complete with 27,000,000 Fresh E-Mail Addresses" and an "excellent Shareware Stealth E-Mailing program".

    Considering Linux One's business plan so far, maybe this is how they're going to promote themselves.

  5. Re:The LinuxOne world, according to Chas. by PigleT · · Score: 2 · on LinuxOne At It Again?

    You're absolutely right, especially about the flea market thing. Taking a list of the 'software titles' available, it looks like nothing more than the crap-ware you'd expect at a local fair.

    Not to mention, http://www.poso.com/gui-page.htm is no way to tune a guitar. You don't want a piano, the timbre's all wrong. You certainly *don't* want to start with open 6th string, as any inaccuracy there sucks. You don't want to do each string separately either - the best is harmonics off 5th and 7th frets, starting with 6th and working up. Misinformation. Grrr!
