[News] Open Source (GPL) Games Mean Money; Wii Wiining (sic)

New PC Gaming Standard Based on Open Source

,----[ Quote ]
| Eli Tomlinson makes money off of the work of others. He packages up
| GPL-licensed Linux games, and sells them on his Web site for $19.95.
| But the free software wonks who made these games aren't complaining.
| In fact, they're cheering his efforts. That?s because he's made them
| easier to play. Tomlinson?s contribution to the package makes GNU
| games more accessible to the end user. End user-focused Linux gaming,
| you ask? Where?s the money in that?
