An extremely worthwhile purchase.


The book is well written and shows the many sides of a fascinating individual.


Besides instilling me with a great deal of respect for Mr Stallman, it made me realise just how warped some of my thinking was. Growing up in a Windows world, the thought of people actually HELPING other people with software wasn't something I had ever thought about. Profits are important, social conscious was not. Morals weren't applicable.


Thank goodness I've got THAT one sorted out. 8)
