If you don't like it, then it's “spamming”.

The GPL does not promote the idea of having people take things.
Instead, it promotes that you *give*.  It makes you release the code
back into the public.  The BSD license allows people to take and
take.  That's what MS is doing- taking and using BSD code without
giving anything back.

I don't either.  Firms are using the recession as an excuse to lay off
people.  It's simply a method to cut costs.

I am still young (in college) and hope to get experience since it's
sometimes more valued than a piece of paper.  I'll just have to have
both!

OK.  So can Schestowitz.

I've actually disagreed with Schestowitz in the “New Sub-notebooks to
Cost $176 and Run GNU/Linux Only” thread when he said to use benzine
on a laptop.  I agreed with you in that thread, actually, after you
said to use a blow-dryer.  He didn't blow up at me!
