I actually took offense to this article... (Score 1)

When I first read this article, I thought, "this guy is just trying to create a little steam.." and it made me angry. Open source has been one the most revolutionary and liberal computer policies of all time. I never post, but I feel strongly about this one.. I am a journalist, and this article seemed like poor journalism to me. I respect the opinions of everybody, but he uses references that make no sense.. such as open source being "all hype and speculation and no fundamentals" What sort of fundamentals is he referring to? He is trash talking the movement yet he has no physical evidence of any harm that open-source has caused. (Not to mention the fact that he avoids sobjects such as the beauty of Apache and how crappy the internet would be without it) And what sort of goods is he looking for? He never actually states... I think he is referring to profit.. sure open-source software isn't the best when it comes to economics, but it is a very forward way of thinking.
Viva la GNU!
