Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

[Eric Kidd] on visions of the future Software Industry: Micro Soft, Open Source... and where the small ISV may try to fit... (It's interesting that he treats Joel Spolsky's operation like a 30-person company, when it's actually a 2-person operation, so far.) And each of these little companies is proudly independent, and each is too focused on destroying other little companies to see the giants all around them. Individually, the little companies will be trampled upon, unseen. They have no philosophers to speak for them, and nobody to defend their role. The small companies offer me no visions.
Tim O Reilly's [ReBoot] talk on the Open Source Paradigm Shift. The money doesn't come from selling software. People who don't
know this have a paradigm failure.
