It's a good article. BTW, I was at that meeting where Marc Andreesen spoke.
Then some of us got into a bus and went into San Francisco for the party -
this was also cool. :)
Anyway, Linux still needs more of this from the mainstream media. It is
nice to have what is there, but there needs to be more. For instance, ZDNet
(they own PC Magazine and other PC rags, of course) may have published a
few good articles over the last few years about Linux, but it is still
completely ignored in the mainstream PC press, which still assumes that
the only thing running on a PC these days is Windows 95.
After all, PC Magazine (and PC World et. al.) are supposed to be magazines
for the derivatives of the IBM PC -- intel-based systems. It's not
Windows or Windows Sources; they are separate magazines, and they should
still remain as publications for Windows enthusiasts.
Reading reviews of various graphic software (for example) in PC Magazine
and not seeing anything about gimp is what's ridiculous, in my opinion.
And for what it's worth: I saw that Intel has now a free club webpage, and
costs nothing to join. They don't even ask the prospective member what
OS is running on their system. They automatically assume that it's
Windows 95.
