It's a Double Feature! MACNJ Serving the Central New Jersey Macintosh Community since 1986 September 2011 It’s a double feature! Welcome back! Hope you’ve had a great summer. by Bill Barr, Program Chairman For the September meeting, we offer two presentations for newsrooms back when local radio stations actually had you. Keeping with our “How to promote your small business newsrooms. Now the managing editor of the Hunterdon or non-profit”, Democrat, Curtis sees the immediacy of the internet and the vitality of nj.com as the news medium not of the future, Mr. Curtis Leeds from the Hunterdon Democrat but of the present. will discuss getting your content published in the newspaper. He has been reporting with the Hunterdon Democrat over 20 years. His recent move up to Managing Editor takes advantage of his intimate knowledge about the local political scene. He knows what’s happening. He also knows what catches his attention and then gets published! He’ll tackle a number of our concerns on how to make best use of “the paper”. There’s a lot that’s new. Bring you own notebook. How’s your short hand? Our members, President David Davis and co-Newsletter editor Bob Fasanello, will give you an update on Apple’s latest operating system, “Lion - what to watch out for!” It’s a major update. So a lot is cooking! Oooops. Time to make the donuts - bagels - coffee and more. All are welcome! Come for a visit or join MACNJ. See you soon - Saturday morning - September 10, - at 9am to noon - Voorhees High School just north of High Bridge, NJ. I can’t wait. Curtis Leeds got his start in the news business the way many young boys once did - by delivering a daily newspaper. He tired of trudging through the snow that is the hallmark of Buffalo winters, however, and decided life might be Saturday easier if he worked as a photographer for his hometown weekly newspaper. Still too young to drive, he bicycled September 10, 2011 around his Niagara River town of Grand Island, New York, taking photos that earned him fame but - at $10 each - 9:00 AM - 12:00 NOON didn’t earn him wealth. (Curtis’ fee had to pay for film and darkroom chemicals, too.) It was the immediacy of radio that prompted his next move, where he worked in Buffalo radio Volume 26, Number 8 www.macnj.org page 1 Macintosh Association of Central New Jersey September 2011 What’s in our future? by Bill Barr, Program Chairman Coming up later this year will be interesting presentations take the place of iWeb?

Engst Faxing has been around in one form or another since the mid-1800s [1], and while there’s no question that it’s disappearing from many businesses around the world, there are still industries that rely heavily on faxed documents, notably real estate and construction, where paper trails of it’s worth a try moving the drivers over and restarting in signed documents remain important.

  • Technology, Property Rights and Organizational Equilibria: an Explanation of the Co-Existence of Open and Closed-Source Productions
    Technology, Property Rights and Organizational Equilibria: An Explanation of the Co-existence of Open and Closed-source Productions Fabio Landini∗ e-mail: [email protected] Version 1.1y January 24, 2011 Abstract This paper presents a model on the viability and persistence of open and closed-source productions in the software industry. Starting from some empirical evidences on the organizational diversity that character- izes this sector of the economy, the paper answers one main question: why do open and closed-source productions co-exist? Drawing on a two- ways causality between technology and property rights the model shows that: (a) for a sufficiently high degree of technical mellaebility (i.e. high substitutability between production inputs) there exist two asymptoti- cally stable organizational equilibria, namely an open and a closed-source production; (b) the convergence toward one equilibrium rather than the other is affected by the cost advantages of the two productive solutions, including rents and design costs; and (c) in the presence of conflicting in- terests among developers, there exist a wide range of parameters for which production inefficiency is persistent. The paper adds to the previous lit- erature on free/open-source software in three ways: first, it presents open and closed-source productions as two distinct production systems char- acterized by a specific combination of technology and property rights; second, it explains the emergence of open-source productions considering also a causality that runs from property rights to technology; and third, it suggests that institutional complementarities can motivate the sustained co-existence of open and closed-source productions despite of their rela- tive (in)efficiency.
