Why Software is not treated fairly

,----[ Quote ]
| Most people have become familiar with the computer world 
| within this proprietary software industry so they never 
| got to know what freedoms they are entitled to and so they 
| never ask for them. This article is not about free 
| software, although many ideas in this article are similar. 
| This article is about the rights and respect that the 
| computer user deserves, and have been taken away from him 
| without even knowing it.
|
| You should always seek your freedom or it will be taken 
| away and you will not even notice that it is missing.

Dropbox hits two million Windows, Mac and Linux users

,----[ Quote ]
| Earlier this month cloud storage startup Dropbox 
| celebrated its first anniversary, and has now hit another 
| milestone with its two millionth user. Dropbox is a solid 
| example of how the cloud can bring efficiencies in this 
| modern ultra-connected world. Itâs also a service that has 
| genuinely changed my life for the better.

Open Source vs. Proprietary â Freeâs Not Free

,----[ Quote ]
| And just like PC vs. Mac, the open source vs. proprietary
| decision involves considerations that go beyond pure preference.
| Letâs discuss these considerations and look at how you can make a
| better decision for your company.
