Windows' decline could drag others down too

| This is why Linux is important in ways that are 
| not just about opposing Microsoft and its 
| products. Linux is a rival not just because it 
| is second option but because its whole model 
| and rasion dâetre is distinct. Linux and the 
| software of the commons doesnât necessarily 
| lead to innovation per se, but it does help 
| move the cost of it to the parts of the system 
| that people actually use and care about.

| 1. You're tired of being bossed around by your computer.
| Would you tolerate your car refusing to start until you scanned in your pink
| slip every time to prove you bought it? Would you put up with parts of your
| house being walled off because only the architect was allowed access? Would
| you allow your doctor to withhold information in your medical file from you
| because it's intellectual property? Then why do you put it with this from a
| computer you bought and paid for?
