Re: Food for thought?
It's true that Microsoft has fixed things so that you get Windows "free" whenever you buy a computer, thus making the fact that Linux is free less important. And we all know what Linux is doing wrong; making it painful to write Linux drivers for hardware, by changing the interface with each new kernel, and banning closed-source drivers from some Linux distributions. Not to mention that different Linux distros use different package managers.
So if I need shrink-wrapped software, it will be for Windows. But I may be able to get free software of a similar kind for Linux.
