Ask Bruce Perens About Linux and Open Source
A lot is going on these days, ranging from the endlessly amusing SCO soap opera to plenty of mostly positive news about Linux and Open Source adoption by both corporate and government users, not to mention an increasing number of commercial applications being ported to Linux. And, of course, LinuxWorld is right around the corner. Bruce Perens is certainly as appropriate a person as any to help us get a handle on the current (and possibly future) state of Linux and Open Source. We'll send him 10 of the highest moderated questions, and post his answers as soon as he gets them back to us. As usual, one question per post, please, and don't bother asking questions that can easily be answered with a couple of minutes' worth of online research.
The real, I don't know, but this one for sure.

BTW, I wonder if he got layed off by HP because he's been a loooong time on slashdot ?
Finally : it is a dupe (answers here), but a fairly late one

Umm...uh...hey...uh...what's up?
Anybody that knows anything knows that the AmigaOS is the shiznit.

Actually, I have too agree with you...My Mom is in the same boat. Windows is definitely a more "dumbed-down" OS, to actually use Linux productively, other than web surfing or email, you need more technical ability. But for the masses your comment is right on!
As a frequent Slashdot poster, if given the opportunity to ask yourself a question in a Slashdot interview would you ask yourself a question, and if so, what would that question be? If not, would you save your mod points to moderate up other questions that you wanted to be asked, and if so, which questions would you moderate up?
Can't you see that everyone is buying station wagons?
how come I never, ever get mod points. It's been like well over a year. Am I missing a setting somewhere?
