my fourteen year old boy be very much into computer ( that hardly surprising ) . this summer he will be back with the john hopkins university center for talented youth program studying i do not really know exactly what . it some kind of computer program and i just sign the check . he very much both anti microsoft and anti bill gate . he also quite pro linux and the emblem of the open source movement whose adherent regard it underlying virtue with a devotion normally reserve by the religious for the icon of their faith . so he want me to see revolution o and a documentary about the linux operating system and the open source movement that spawn the increasingly important competitor to both microsoft and apple . this be a very interesting documentary which i and clueless a to the secret of operate system and readily understood . i watch it with the bare comprehension of linux or the philosophy underlie the open source concept . much credit to the filmmaker for not only explain the seminal value of open source the commitment to free interchange of idea with minimal incorporation of legal protection for intellectual property but for also succinctly allow contrast value and compete personality screen time . this documentary be a very concise but excellent guide for the uninitiated into a world usually the arcane preserve of specialist most adept at talk to each other . the open source movement be a work in progress threaten by the real risk of those benefit from openness legally protect their own add value and thus and in a sense and betray their benefactor . several of those interview pursue their open source value almost a a creed and the commitment to computer take the place of more traditional dogma . anyone interested in a major intellectual counterpoint to the dominance of both microsoft and the role of law in insure proprietary benefit for innovator should see revolution o represent no manual require . positive .
