  10. Price Competition on Time Warner to Spin Off AOL? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    AOL is still overpriced for dial up. If they want to remain afloat they'll need to lower their prices to compete with Netzero, Netscape, et. al.

  13. DIY Patch System on Windows Cheaper to Patch Than Open Source? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Another factor tht's not considered is that with FOSS products you are free to write your own patch system if you don't find any that meet your needs. With windows you're stuck with what they offer.

  19. Re:It means we can ignore syscon on LinuxWorld Senior Editorial Staff Resigns · · Score: 1

    Right, but my point was about all the PHBs that read sys-con publications. What's to say that the editorial positions will not be filled by Microsoft shills, or others who are not sympathetic to the FOSS cause.

  20. We showed them on LinuxWorld Senior Editorial Staff Resigns · · Score: 3, Insightful
    ... didn't we?

    Is NOT having someone with our point of view in that position going to cause more problems than those that caused their resignations?

    However, I applaud the editors for their integrity.
