| Wow! Not only there are Ubuntu screenshots and
| big Wilber, noâ The textbook explains what is
| Open Source, what are proprietary operating
| systems. You can even find words like FreeBSD,
| NetBSD, EXT2, EXT3, UFS :) They equally provide
| space for Microsoft Windows Vista, XP and Ubuntu
| Linux (no MacOSX). Granted, in the office
| section, they explain how to work with MS Office
| tools, but they acknowledge existence of
| OpenOffice.org, quoting âWe were attracted by
| Microsoft Office 2007 and OpenOffice.org.â,
| providing links to OpenOffice.org (on each
| chapter about office tools) and manuals.

GIMP too. Watch the screenshots above.
When will GIMP 2.8 be released?

| While the developers still work continuous on
| the next version of GIMP there comes, of course,
| the question of a release date. Will GIMP 2.8
| yet reach us in 2010?

| Perhaps the most shocking event was
| Microsoft's submission of code for inclusion
| in the Linux kernel under a GPL license that
| Microsoft once tagged as a threat to
| capitalism itself. But it was not so much an
| olive branch as it was a brain freeze:
| Microsoft had inadvertently included some
| open source code in the virtualization
| drivers it eventually submitted for the Linux
| kernel and was more or less left with little
| choice.
|
| Microsoft ended up in that same spot later in
| the year when a tool it released to create
| bootable USB drives for Windows 7 also was
| found to contain open source code. That tool
| also was pushed into the open source
| community.
