Free Software Fanatics

http://www.extremetech.com

Over at Desktop Linux Reviews, I recently wrote a review of Mandriva Linux 2010. I certainly never intended to insult anybody with my choice of words, so I apologized in the comments section. But, in a way, I'm very glad that this issue came up as I think it's one worth exploring.

#61 Jazz, Jazz Standards, and Open Source

http://www.consortiuminfo.org

An interesting look at the Linux CLI-GUI debate once more

http://www.ghabuntu.com

Review: Red Hat Virtual Experience 2009

http://www.montanalinux.org

I was hoping Red Hat would use this event to introduce / announce RHEV for Desktops but no such luck. I guess we'll have to continue to wait until January.

If it looks, acts and smells brown then it must be.

http://it.toolbox.com

I am a big believer in that people are defined not by what they say but by what they do. If a person talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk then what they say, according to me, holds as much water as a vegetable strainer. I also feel the same way about companies.
