OK, I admit it. I was just a front-man for the real fathers of Linux, the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus.

When it comes to software, I much prefer free software, because I have very seldom seen a program that has worked well enough for my needs, and having sources available can be a life-saver.

One of the reasons that I really don't mind that people are selling Linux commercially is exactly because it does make me feel good that people use the product.
