Ironing out some issues during my fresh installation of Fedora 6 in one of my machines, I started my browser to test the connectivity online.

I had just tested the VNC server from another machine since I was experiencing some issues with the ATI video card that I thought were OS/2 specific.

Opened my mail and came across a note on the battle of the Penguin versus Gates taking place in Cuba --with Stallman leading the charge on the Penguin's front.

"He [Cuba's Communications Minister Ramiro Valdes]
also noted that Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates once described copyright reformers — including people who want to do away with proprietary software — as "some new modern-day sort of communists" — which is a badge of honor from the Cuban perspective.

Microsoft did not return calls seeking comment."

I as I tunned my ATI's xorg.conf configuration file in a satisfactorily manner, I could not help being reminded of the Uniaudio/WarpVision argument thread (< http://www.os2world.com/cgi-bin/ultraboard/UltraBoard.cgi?action=Read&BID=51&TID=1020&P=3#ID1020 >)
