Playfair Relocates to India

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the taking-pea-out-of-the-pool dept.

Lord Grey writes "Imagine my surprise to see playfair 0.5.0 appear on Freshmeat's project list. Remember, the project was pulled after Apple filed a Cease-and-Desist order just a few days ago. playfair's new web site talks a bit about the move, as well as sporting the latest release of the controversial utility."

    Whining about Microsoft's monopoly on the PC desktop is kind of pointless when you think about it: Microsoft co-invented the PC with IBM, so of course it would dominate. Just like Ford dominates the engines inside Ford cars.
