Altough Anonymous -seems to be a trend here :)- i'd like to comment.
Damn, you guys are sharp!! First time i visit 4chan from the referers back here. -so be easy on me- Well, I guess it's a hard topic to discuss, many years gone by -30 orso- and I agree it's a difficult topic, there are alot of nuances that sets a GNU philosophy apart, I am glad that it's discussed here, the dissing also, because that is important because i think that puts things in perspective. I've read ALL the comments, and with alot of them I agree, anyway I hope you enjoyed the article, and hopefully gave you another perspective on how things can work.
I think people are conditioned in their restictions -e.g. they made to belive that there are limits- Well, the fact that one person made it possible that anyone can run a OS for free, shows that their are no limitations in life. It is possible, to me that is a very clear message: If you think you can accomplish something, you can. Don't let anyone deviate from your path. You are intelligent enough to become whatever you want to become. just a matter of having faith in yourself.
Keep it going, I really appreciatre the ideas/comments being aired here, that another kind of precious freedom.
Peace!

I am :)
I checked back the link I got from 4chan in my ref.logs, don't know how to prove it either. Anywayz, If you're not sure hook me up on my e-mail on my website, and i'll send you a confirmation. I'm just back from a night in the city here, so I'm wasted by now. xD
Yeah first-timer here on the "CHAN" and what can I say, it's crazy and brilliant @ the same time. But I have to get used to it, that's 4 sure.
