"is comprehension of the GPL too difficult for you?
You either can't read, understand or you are just a troll. Linux is still free if you download it. No - you can't download Redhat or SUSE proprietory extensions for free. But they can charge you for putting together a complete system if they wish.
Go back to page one of "Computing for Dummies" and find out the difference between applications and OS's.
Maybe this business model involving GPL software is too complicated for you. "
so bundling is ok if it's not ms? maybe you should advocate that these linux distro's not bundle and offer the free portion as a seperate download...but guess the gpl is only free now if you buy the addon's, be like getting a free car, with purchase of radio, radio cost $25,000 - Posted by: lmaxwell Posted on: 11/17/03 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
