Oiling the digital society 

,----[ Quote ]
| That shared ideology is far more significant than the specifics of particular 
| alliances or clashes over certain parts of the market. Google's Chrome OS, 
| for example, is really just a minor adjustment of pieces on the chess board 
| of the modern computing industry, neither a declaration of intent against 
| Microsoft nor an attempt to annex GNU/Linux into Google's worldview.

Is free the new pay?

,----[ Quote ]
| Matthew Szulik runs a successful business that gives its products away for
| free.
|
| What is more, Mr Szulik was recently named the United States Entrepreneur of
| the Year.
|
| The company he works for - Red Hat - turns a profit by distributing free,
| open source software; computer programs and applications that anyone can
| download.
