As a non-programmer, while I like the idea of open source, it&#39;s less important to me than the freedom to choose the software that I like best.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930004102572847909.post-64503730159892497712009-10-17T13:39:29.040-04:002009-10-17T13:39:29.040-04:00Et chacun a son gout ;-) <br /><br />I like it to have a free alternativ to proprietary stuff. Just an example from using a 64bit built: Until recently there was no 64bit port of e.g. Flash (yeah I know flash sucks anyway, so no big loss;-)). There were workarounds with a 32bit layer and such, but that went against my intention to use 64bit in the first place. I was happy to have something like swdec or gnas, (limited as they were)<br /><br />Btw. I made similar experiences being called names when stating I tried to preserve as much freedom as possible on my linux box. So, both sides shouldn&#39;t make such a bis fuss about this topic I guess. ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930004102572847909.post-51389209892307901752009-10-16T23:38:24.300-04:002009-10-16T23:38:24.300-04:00I totally agree. Althought Firefox comes standard on Ubuntu and is a decent browser, I personally don&#39;t like it. I use Opera and yes, I&#39;ve been &quot;reminded&quot; here and there that what? you use Opera? but Opera is proprietary! So what! I say, I&#39;m gonna use the browser I want and that&#39;s the end of it!<br />Vive la liberté d&#39;expression!
