[ubuntu-us-ma] Wednesday Evenings

[Martin Owens]

Hey Mike,

One reason people might throw the party is because you get a free
license of Vista Unl... I mean Windows 7 Unlimited. So you get a free
license of some very expensive software which is in effect a guilded
cage.

Even if it was the best software since the sliced bread gif animation.
It's not Free Software, you never get to own it, you don't get choices
or control over your own computer. And for that alone it's worth
avoiding.

Best Regards, Martin Owens
