Oh, yes.
And the last thing that we need is an alliance between Microsoft and NOW. what would they call it?
MSNOW?
I wonder what Gates' next ida will be....

Dear People.
You should know the following:
1. Iran is not an ARAB country.
2. The fact that who is the leader (mullah or not mullah), doesn't change anything. The computers will always live.
3. Internet will always find its ways to any country.
4. We don't hate the western people, rather they hate us. Example: IT is concidered prohibited by the American government the entry of powerfull encryption technology to Iran, and some other countries, which includes MD5. Therefore, we aren't allowed to d/l Linux (any reasonable distro) from US mirrors.
5. You know, there also exist some geeks, who don't care about politics at all. (Like me).
6. I am very intrested in OSS coming to Iran. It already has, to some extent. Check out:
counter.li.orgiranlinux.org
and, kdefarsi.org
.
7. Anyways, Linux and OSS will eventually take control of everywhere, including IRAN.
8. We are not TERRORISTS. We live like other people in the world. What is the point in being a terrorist anyways? How do you dare call us (including me) TERRORISTS? Have I killed you? Or what?
9. Religion has nothing to do with Open Source. Open Source is actually a special type of religion, if you put it that way.
10. May the source be with you.
