Bart Decrem on the Linux Business

Anonymous Hero writes "Co-founder of Eazel and now vice president of Hancom Linux, Bart Decram gives his views on a whole lot of things related to desktop Linux in an interview at Linux and Main. He talks abour what went wrong with Eazel, why everyone should work together to build Microsoft Office filters, how anti-U.S. sentiment can be used to promote Linux throughout the world, and how he thinks KDE is 'butt-ugly.' Long read, but worth it."

    Yes, step right in to kde-look.org. We have 1000s of KDE themes!

    Now would you like the Aqua or XP ripoff?

    Its just like those rednecks who like both kinds of music -- country AND western.

    The main reason I keep using GNOME is that the icons on KDE are aesthetically offensive to me. And the letter K is kind of offensive, it's not very elegant Oh really, i think you better change your name Decrem rhymes with god awful things Seriously, this guy is dememted. These type of people who are way to radical bring bad publicity to open source. Due to these handful of war mongers, open sourcers and called communists athiests and what not. What is this guy trying to do! Be the next stallman? Well he is sadly mistaken, stallman is not all rants, that guy is a genius too, and this is sorely lacking in this chap. but I think maybe one or two of them are going to make it. And hes got some arrogance, so similar to Gates

    Damn people lets be honest here while MS may not have been technically inovated but they have executed much better than the open source communicty and in the end have a better product. ITS NOT CAUSE MS MAKES YOU.


    You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about and obviously little to no knowledge of how MS got where they are today.
