2004 February
February 2004 Games and Entertainment Megan Morrone Today you can use the same machine to organize your finances, create a presentation for your boss, and defend the Earth from flesh-eating aliens. But let’s be honest: Even with the crazy advances in software, organizing your finances and creating a presentation for your boss are still not half as much fun as defending the Earth from flesh-eating aliens.That’s why we’ve devoted the entire month of February to the noble pursuit of games and entertainment for PCs, Macs, game consoles, and PDAs. I know what you’re thinking.You’re thinking that you can skip right over this chapter because you’re not a gamer. Gamers are all sweaty, pimpled, 16-year-old boys who lock themselves in their basements sustained only by complex carbohydrates and Mountain Dew for days on end, right? Wrong.Video games aren’t just for young boys anymore. Saying you don’t like video games is like saying you don’t like ice cream or cheese or television or fun.Are you trying to tell me that you don’t like fun? If you watch The Screen Savers,you know that each member of our little TV family has a uniquely different interest in games. Morgan loves a good frag fest, whereas Martin’s tastes tend toward the bizarre (think frogs in blenders or cow tossing.) Kevin knows how to throw a cutting-edge LAN party,while Joshua and Roger like to kick back with old-school retro game emulators. I like to download free and simple low-res games that you can play on even the dinkiest PC, whereas Patrick prefers to build and rebuild the perfect system for the ultimate gaming experience (see February 13).And leave it to Leo to discover the most unique new gaming experience for the consummate early adopter (see February 1). -
Logiciel Libre : Idée Fausse, Quand Tu Nous Tiens&
Logiciel libre : idée fausse, quand tu nous tiens ! On le sait, les préjugés ont la peau dure, et le logiciel libre a bien du mal à se débarrasser de ceux qu’il traîne derrière lui. Quels que soient ces préjugés, d’où qu’ils viennent, il est assez aisé d’y répondre et de les corriger lorsqu’on s’intéresse un tant soit peu au monde du libre, mais la méconnaissance du « grand public » et les efforts des adversaires du libre pour le dénigrer ont ancré ces idées dans l’esprit de pas mal de gens[1]. Il faut croire que les campagnes deFUD de Microsoft et consorts ont porté leurs fruits, même si heureusement des acteurs du libre tels que Firefox, Wikipédia, OpenOffice.org et Ubuntu, entre autres, contribuent à faire connaître davantage les logiciels libres et à transformer les mentalités. Cependant, malgré les progrès accomplis depuis quelques années, la visibilité croissante et l’image positive qu’est en train de gagner le libre, certaines idées fausses perdurent et constituent sans doute un frein à une adoption plus vaste des logiciels et systèmes d’exploitation libres. Voici donc un article synthétique[2] qui dresse la liste des cinq idées fausses les plus répandues concernant le Libre, et les arguments à y opposer lorsqu’au détour d’une conversation sur Internet ou chez vos amis un vilain troll pointe le bout de son nez… Comment mal comprendre le Logiciel Libre How to Misunderstand Free Software 27 juin 2008 – GetGNULinux.org (Traduction Framalang : Thomas P., Vincent L., Daria et Yostral) Cinq idées fausses à propos du Logiciel Libre, avec leurs corrections. -

Adopting and Using Open Source Software: First Annual COSI
Adopting and Using Open Source Software First Annual COSI Conference Held September 7, 2005 -- Redwood Shores, California Open source software is changing the way that software is being developed and used, with a significant impact on software developers, vendors, and users. Millions of people use the OpenOffice™ productivity suite and/or the Firefox™ web browser. Many of the world’s most heavily used websites are built with open source software, so almost everyone is a user of open source. Software developers also rely on open source development tools and execution environments. Companies are beginning to formulate policies around their use of open source software, as well as adjusting their acquisition, adoption, and development processes. This one-day conference, organized by Carnegie Mellon's Center for Open Source Investigation (COSI), brought together leading experts from industry and academia to discuss key topics in evaluating, adopting, licensing, using, and supporting open source software. These experts have extensive experience with both traditional packaged and open source products. The goal of the conference is to help companies understand technical, business, and organizational issues that influence decisions about open source solutions. The conference is aimed at managers with responsibility for software product development, software acquisition, internal IT operations, and related policy- making. We are grateful to our sponsors for their support. Speakers and topics included: Rod Smith, IBM, “Open source development and
