I concur 100% with Jim: this is not meant to be a 'neutral' news
report, it is a list for Linux (and OpenSource) <i><b>enthusiasts</b></i>.
Please don't start trying to make this list balanced, we're all here
because we're dedicated to evangelizing and helping others with
Linux and OpenSource solutions. Regardless of where they are now
relative to existing proprietary solutions, we believe in their
future and their utility, or we wouldn't be here. Best, Daniel<br>
