Intrepid Alpha 1 released
,----[ Quote ]
| Welcome to Intrepid Ibex Alpha-1, which will in time become Ubuntu 8.10.
|
| Pre-releases of Intrepid are *not* encouraged for anyone needing a stable
| system or anyone who is not comfortable running into occasional, even
| frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended for Ubuntu developers and
| those who want to help in testing, reporting, and fixing bugs.
|
| Alpha 1 is the first in a series of milestone CD images that will be
| released throughout the Intrepid development cycle. The Alpha images are
| known to be reasonably free of showstopper CD build or installer bugs, while
| representing a very recent snapshot of Intrepid.

"Monopoly raises two classes of problems for a free society. First, the
existence of monopoly means a limitation on voluntary exchange through a
reduction in the alternatives available to individuals. Second, the existence
of monopoly raises the issue of “social responsibility”, as it has come to be
called, of the monopolist."

Feeling the heat at Microsoft

| A couple of years ago you reiterated that IBM was Microsoft's biggest

| Ballmer: Open...Linux. I don't want to say open source. Linux, certainly have
| to go with that.
