Byte’s Moshe Bar takes a look at upgrading your Linux

backward? I think I have the answer: money. As long as the Linux
distributions were in the game for fun, they did a good job. Now

companies need to turn profits (GASP!!!) to survive, companies
start to cut on staff and start pushing for delivery dates, and
then you get this mess.”
