Submission + - FORBES:Stallman Kamikazeing Linux

Frumious Wombat writes: Forbes is after Stallman again. In their October 30th issue (only available to registered users on their web-page), they present "Toppling Linux", about how Stallman's insistence on GPL-3 anti-DRM language could split Linux and turn its market over to Microsoft and Sun. From the article, "IT managers want to buy stuff that puts them at as little risk as possible. If there was a risk that Stallman could become such a loose cannon, that's something most IT maangers would have wanted to know before they bet their companies on Linux." Forbes also seems a little miffed that billion-dollar tech-companies tread so lightly in his presence.
