"The LinuxWorld Expo held in San Jose, Calif., this mid-August
brought a dissonant combination of flashbacks, deja vu, and future
shock...."
"Have you ever gone to an event or trade show to discover
that something was on fire? The joint was a-hoppin. Einstein
was right: time slows around gravitational point sources. Such was
the nature of LinuxWorld Expo."
"There are a lot of new friends to Linux. Some smell a winner.
Some believe that Linux and open source is a natural magnet for
developers, and therefore apps. Others like the commotion. Still,
others would like to vent their hostilities and frustrations at the
state of computing and the madness that Microsoft seems to be
blithely ignoring."
