3. i disagree with second paragragh on page 6. where it says that FOSS
performs better than the proprietory softwares....
I suppose this is subjective. I have found myself far more
productive on UNIX/Linux products, than I ever have been on Windows
derived products, often because I can tweak the software to behave in a
manner that increases my efficiency.
YMMV.
4. page 10 says rms started developing a free operation system called
GNU which is wrong. rms started a GNU project to create a unix-like
operation system. more over rms and linus did not plan and started the
project. i think its a grammer mistake
Well, RMS did start to develop a free OS called GNU -- except that
the kernel was supposed to be the HURD. Linux came out of nowhere, and
succeeded, while the HURD remains a experimental kernel.
