I don’t know Matt Asay. I’ve never meet him. I have read a lot of his articles on Free and Open Source software, and he seems to lack a clear understanding of his subject matter, and the English language.

Linux Ads on the Kim Komando Show
Ken over at the Helios Project, has arranged for Linux radio ads. Which is really neat. Let’s face it, if you don’t advertise, people won’t know that they have an option. So with the help of a professional voice, an ad was recorded, and they bought space on the Kim Komando show. Kim apparently specializes […]
