Computerworld > Taking a cynical view of open source

"Open source is not a movement; it's a religion. It is a set of principles and practices that let everyone share non-existent or semi-existent intellectual property. Remember the Communist Manifesto: "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need." It is this generation's Woodstock."

Written by Howard Anderson Framingham, who is:

"the senior managing director of Yankeetek, a Cambridge, Mass., venture incubator. He is also founder of The Yankee Group and the William Porter Distinguished Lecturer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology."

The Yankee Group is the FUD arm of Microsoft, and home to that other Microsoft Shill, and generally stupid cow, Laura Didio.

QOTD:

Catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam

I have a catapult. Give me all your money, or I will fling an enormous rock at your head.
