After reading three WordArc articles advocating the beauty behind advertisements, I couldn't resist having my say. One of the biggest corporation in the world is Microsoft. Because of Microsoft's advertisements, I feel people have a lot of misinformation of what one can do with a computer (This includes Apple advertisements, which have recently spread the same amount, if not more, misinformation).

But there is a man who takes on the greedy corporate outlook of his peers: Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. If you live in Vancouver, then I invite you to attend a talk by the man behind the free, open and almost Marxist operating system that takes on these corporate giants, Richard Stallman. He will be presenting at UBC in the Woodword building Room 2 at 8:30 PM, and his talk is free. I will try my best to attend his talk and, with crossed fingers, I may have a chance to interview this pioneer. I'll post the information I gather on WordArc to show the power of non-corporation.


I invite you to see the "other side" of this Mac Vs. PC computer debate that advertisements created by Apple and Microsoft has created. The other side being a very almost Marxist style operating system known as GNU/Linux which can arguably perform a lot of the tasks an average user needs, for free, and with great success. I do not consider Linux nearly as "corporate" as its competitors, and if one considers it a corporation then it's at least an example of one that is the most philanthropic systems in the world. Many people have a fear of Linux for no valid reason, I believe that a lot of it has been spread by the massive advertising campaigns of its corporate competition.

If you feel you need to learn more about GNU/Linux to enjoy his talk, then invite you to read what I've already covered so far on this topic in this article
