my personal take: because if i want to deal with money, i open the door and step outside. if i want to enjoy myself without $$$ in mind, i use and contribute to debian. another point: money will make you blind. check out suse: 10 years ago it was the best distro, today they forgot what a user that isn't paying $10000/month for a support contract is. another: it adds to the contrast (microsoft,money,shit,insecure,slow) :: (linux,free,kewl,secure,blazing) and the last: when i work for debian (like posting 100 msgs/day to the mailing list), i do so out of free will. would there be money involved, then it'd automatically take higher priority, i'd quit at five, and i wouldn't do anything that i wasn't being paid for. -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] scintillation is not always identification for an auric substance.
