Talking with Richard Stallman  12 June 2005

What I started in 1984 was the development of the GNU operating system. All the operating systems for modern computers of the day were proprietary; users were forbidden to share them, and could not get the source code to change them. The only way to use computers in freedom was to replace those systems with a free operating system. That's what GNU was meant to do.

Source: securitypipeline.com - Posted by Vincenzo Ciaglia   
very person or organization that spends time surfing the Web faces the risk of spyware and viruses. For those who spend time investigating sites that specialize in child pornography and other illicit material, the risk is even greater. That's why software to protect their machines is crucial. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children on Wednesday began migrating its systems to Active Directory. That deployment had been on hold because of the large quantities of spyware, pop-ups, and other malicious software the center's workers ran into as they investigated potentially illicit Web sites, according to Steve Gelfound, director of IT at the center.

What's The Best VoIP System For SMBs?  15 February 2005 
Source: networkingpipeline.com - Posted by Vincenzo Ciaglia   
Making phone calls using a broadband Internet connection, more fondly known as VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), is becoming more and more popular with corporations of every size.

Source: news.com - Posted by Vincenzo Ciaglia   
The number of blogs and the use of blog readers rose rapidly last year--but a majority of Americans still do not know what a blog is.

The Linux Year  24 December 2004 
Source: PcPro - Posted by Vincenzo Ciaglia   
The year of the penguin, some people hailed 2004 at the turn of the year. And in many ways it was. Was it because the march on the server space continued at a relentless pace? Because there were big announcements around desktop installments? Because there was finally some realistic perspective about the threat from SCO, or the threat to Microsoft?
