Well, they have gone and done it, and for one I will not be running to load
Vista anytime soon.
Microsoft has painted itself into a corner and once again will be the
Evil Forces of
Mordor in my book. The Triad of
RIAA,
MPAA and
Sony have done their dirty work and you will pay with your freedom if you buy Vista preloaded on a computer with the
Vista supporting hardware. I am turning my new
new laptop into a dual boot box to run
Ububtu Linux. I will not have the forces on the
Media Industry Shills telling me what to do and what I can watch and listen to on my personal laptop. If I sound a bit fired up, I am. My point is that the only way our personal freedoms will survive the next onslaught of DRM schemes by
corporations trying to protect tired
outdated cash cows is to remain
hyper-vigilant and not only to make an effort to be heard through the web and other forums, but to vote with your pocket book. Don’t buy
products from
companies that actively scheme
against your rights and see you the consumer as a criminal ! Sorry for the Soapbox Rant. My point is that I for one have decided to move as fast as possible to some flavor of Linux and Open Source. Microsoft has decided to go to bed with the wrong people and in the end our
freedom to chose
what we do over the
web and how we choose it to do it is going to be
lost.
