Right on "Chinese Guy"

Shawn the Rock posts this awesome picture:

of a fellow in China's response to a Microsoft chat at a local university. While we at Buni (uh hum) love ALL operating system vendors (for the record we do kinda think Exchange sucks, but who doesn't huh?), the message totally resonates with us man. First off, this would take balls to do in the US. In China it would take BRASS ones. Secondly, he isn't so infested with dogma that he only says Open Source or only Free Software...he places them both on his banner. Free Software where it belongs as a higher ideal. Open Source second, as a lesser pragmatic compromise.

Finally, I'd like to highlight Shawn the Rock's blog, CityPassword (quickly becoming one of my personal favorites). While I only understand every other post (the ones in English), the dude is infected with that Open Source punk rock spirit. I might not agree with everything he says but I damn sure agree with him saying it! Rock on Shawn in Sichuan.

Buni Meldware @ Linuxfest Northwest

Apparently I'm not the only one excited that this time next week I'll be on the LUG tour at Linuxfest Northwest. We'll be doing a meldware talk/demo on both days @ 10a. I hope to see you there.
