I thought slashdot got soldout to like andover and then va, so whos is it to sell??? \ At 250k I'm sure that us/.er's could shell out between us to create some open source style situation where: noone and EVERYONE *owns* the site. Your'd still have the real value of the effort and content of the site, (like authors of O-S software.)
I believe that yeah the guy got the doamin at a time when other more profitable doamins would certainly have been available...And yeah can make some money out of it and give himself a pat on the back...But I realy think he should give a substancial amount of the money to the linux community or start/invest a company that is pro open source linux.
