[plug] The Road to Freedom

[Leon Brooks]

It's about Crossover Office, but has this great quote in it:

Fortunately, for those who want to get off the upgrade merry-go-round, 
Microsoft is about to produce the kind of incentive that Linux could never 
provide on its own. Microsoft calls it Licensing 6.0, and the company plans 
to roll it out in August. It gives Microsoft customers the privilege of 
paying a yearly fee to use whatever code Microsoft feels like tossing 
together that year, at no risk to Microsoft.

There are two ways to avoid Licensing 6.0. You can switch to Linux on the 
desktop, or you can switch to Linux on the desktop. Some of you may think you 
can avoid both the migration to Linux and Licensing 6.0 by sticking with your 
current Windows software. Bzzt. It's only a matter of time before Microsoft 
audits you out of your current situation.
