:beer: + :java: = NULL :=> X|For anyone interested, there are a couple of good books (and a DVD) that I recommend:
- Rebel Code: Linux and the Open Source Revolution[^]
- Free as in Freedom: Richard Stallman's Crusade for Free Software[^]
- Revolution OS DVD/VHS[^]
I would actually recommend reading/viewing them in that order as you'll get more out of the latter two if you have a general knowledge of open source / free software and who the major players are. Chris LaQuerre eBusiness Consultant
