more like - you are free to use the ax to build homes that people can live in for free, or maybe even create a happy group commune with open marriages but don't you dare try to sell any of the fruits of YOUR labor since my Ax get's all the credit.
Step 1 - Immediately navigate to your nearest public house with daytime hours. Step 2 - Begin considering network break-in ramifications over fine irish ale. Steps 3..9 (can't remember...)
those who bet their $$ on this will get waxed by those who squeeze the most raw power out of their CPU's/hardware well into the future. The goalposts will just keep moving. But some well behaved apps will live nicely in JVMs/CLR's but the edge will be in real code. They have made claims about byte interpreters since the Series/1, VM, UCSD P-System, and Java.
according to the now fired one. Groklaw is one big IBM love-fest and anyone who can't see that has already drank the kool-aid. We all like free stuff, including OS's. It's fun. But to side with the Death Star so easily creeps me a bit.
A lot of people dislike GPL code since it is created by subsidized developers (students, faculty, gobmint employees, kids living in parents' basements) and one cannot easily compete with that in a fair competetive market when they try to make their UNsubsidized living.
apart from the opinions propeller-heads and artsy-fartsy types - Linux sux worse and Macs are, well, nice but are Macs. When that changes, MS windows will have to improve in kind. Giving away shaky hard-to-use software does not guarantee a market. Though it does tend to inhibit the interest of security threats since there is not enough return value in compromising those systems. Unix (tm) had lots and lots (and lots) of security flaws. Some of them are still in the parts licensed by M$FT. It stands to reason many are still in the clones in some manefestation and many others were probably introduced in the translation. New Features = New Bugs works for all OS's.

benifit yourself.
How do you benifit yourself? (ibid)

SPACE HOCKEY! The time is NOW!

>>>There must be limits to freedom, otherwise freedom becomes a meaningless concept.
the point is - your BSD is still free for you. Don't buy the commerically kicked up one. You did not want that one in the first place.

"It doesn't lock you in to an open source software vendor."
no, it's Java (tm) that does that...
your linux folder, Dave...
wha ah remember cd's - an' don' git me started on floppies - I had a stack a'slackware floppies - fifty high, I did, back in my day...

Oh wait, sorry, we're talking about NON-OPEN-SOURCE code not music. It's theft! If it were OSS, it would be Buying the World a Coke and Harmony!

I would have expected much better than "on par".
Don't forget she destroyed Digital (DEC), at least its still viable offspring, as well. VMS was so much more productive than Unix I could just cry.
maybe she'll move to Oracle... that would improve everyone's karma.
