A Good Windows Tips Newsletter Using the Pay-what-you-want Model In a recent post Jimdoria mentioned a newsletter he loves called "The Windows Secrets Newsletter", which has a rather cool pro-upgrade policy: Gratuitous plug for something I love: The Windows Secrets newsletter is an awesome source of info, and its payment scheme is similar to DC - you can get a basic version of the newsletter for free. If you upgrade to the "paid" version (paying whatever you think the newsletter is worth) you get a much fuller-featured newletter and some extra bonuses too, like downloadable e-books.

Borland's Museum of Antique SoftwarePerhaps it's fitting that as the C++ Builder contest is drawing to a close, Gothic and I were reminscing about programming in the "old days" of Borland's turbo pascal and turbo C and of console mode programs using the ibm pc's ascii character set which seemed designed with gamers in mind, and I stumbled across this nice collection of old Borland software: http://community.borland.com/museum/ |

Tales from the Proprietary: OSS is good for your business model? Why proprietary software is dangerous for business-critical applications.
But the real point here is that an entire medium-sized company's executive staff has learned a hard lesson about the dangers of proprietary software, and members of that staff who previously resisted open source are now ready to consider it -- and for business continuity reasons rather than as a money-saving measure, no less. |
