On: Spyware Company Sues Utah Over Anti-Spyware Law

Surfing the internet for about 30 minutes the other day without my firewall and i ended up with this whenUsearch spam all over my computer. Took me ages to get rid of and im glad they are getting sued. Someone installing software on my computer without my permission is clearly violating my rights and im glad to see they are being punished accordingly. alice@ozforces.com

Open source has its place.

On: Five Fundamental Problems with Open Source?

Open source has its place, but people are never going to accept that something that is free is as good as something made by microsoft and is expensive. Its like if someone bought out a car for $10 000 and said it could beat the pants off a ferrari, most people will still think a ferrari is better. alice@ozforces.com

Do you really want linux to become user friendly?

On: When Does Usability Become a Liability?

Im all for linux being more user friendly, but i still cant stand seeing people treat it like windows. I love the fact that you can operate the whole operating system from the command line, but people who are migrating from windows, often dont and wont appreciate this. alice@ozforces.com
