How Ubuntu (Linux) Changed My Life
,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu changed my life! Iâm smarter, cooler,
| and more ethical.
|
| Sound too good to be true? Well, it isnât.
|
| I began using Linux about 2 years ago.
| Before that, I was a long time Windows user.
| (And before that, an Apple user.) Until my
| Linux days, I was a pretty typical PC user.
| I would word-process documents, play a few
| games, and later, check email and surf the
| net. I really didnât care about how things
| worked; I just wanted them to work. And
| hence, my Windows days were nothing
| pioneering or interesting.

The Open Source Philosophy
,----[ Quote ]
| The Open Source Definition arose out of the ambiguity of the word "free"
| in "Free Software," as defined by the Free Software Foundation." In the
| English language, "free" is a loaded term that has two meanings: "freedom",
| and "costing nothing." It was created to get rid of some of the emotional
| baggage that came with the intense philosophical point of view of the FSF,
| but just because the OSD is more "business-friendly" does not mean that it
| doesn't have the philosophy and intent of openness behind it.

The Open Source Philosophy (Continued)
,----[ Quote ]
| That said, that philosophy drives me to support the companies that I think
| are doing it "right." I work for OpenNMS not just because I think the
| software's great, but also because I love that we can compete with "the big
| guys" by having a better community.
