Note from the Free Software Foundation

The Free Software Foundation published a paper... called, "The road to
hardware free from restrictions", illustrating the ways hardware manufacturers
can work with the free software community, increasing their sales in the
process.

One of the most important ways is to sell hardware that is not restricted by
DRM and not saddled with an operating system that users don't want (Vista).

Read and discuss the paper at
<http://badvista.fsf.org/blog/wanted-one-computer-free-software-friendly-no-vista>.

Help distribute it by giving it a digg at
