Hi everyone,
I've just uploaded the videos from last week's public media roundtable
in Boston's Chinatown. The videos include commentary from Fred Johnson
of UMass/Boston, public media advocate Alyce Myatt, Dan Coughlin of
Manhattan Neighborhood Networks, and myself. We talk about a range of
What fascinates more than anything else in the ongoing Linux -v- Windows
debate is the importance placed on potential code exploits over and above
anything and everything else of consideration... User preference,
suitability of purpose, sustainability and supportability, interactivity

Claude,
But this discussion is simply about a misstatement of facts.
I have read, interpreted and reported the facts correctly.
I would thank you to not confuse or change the issue at hand.

Do not try to obscure the issue of the vulnerabilities language you used.
What you should say in a few words, rather than a lengthy treatise, is that
you misspoke.
And we can leave it at that.

Mike,
I find this hard to believe, given how frequently Windows has to patch
vulnerabilities. Last year their patches often resulted in computers
being rendered unuseable. I had a client who could no longer access her

to fix.
Greetings to all and big congratulations to the digital divide network. We're
happy to be part of the vision of this great network.
Well done Andy.
Lulu.

Part of bridging the digital divide, IMO, has more to do with
building capacities of people and organizations regarding using
technology than actually providing connectivity. And that includes
