What kind of E-mail is landing in Martin Taylorâs in-box right about now? Itâs probably not unlike some of the messages Iâve been getting in response to a story I wrote about Steve Ballmerâs Oct. 27

I have an observation I'd like to disclose about the Open Source community: we tend to leap into all kinds of things before we have all the facts and/or information necessary to make intelligent decisions.

Strange that it should take so long for something like this to happen. After all, it&#39;s been years since those of us using Microsoft&#39;s (Nasdaq: MSFT) Windows OS have had to put up
