Ignore the idiots who complain about FREE software.
They would probably complain about FREE beer as well.
"I only drink Amstel. Get me some for free."


It's more like: "Please give me your wonderful, free, well tasting beer,

but
please be so kind as to serve it in a glass I brought with me, not in a
contaminated paper cup full of holes."


You are quite confused.


No, I am not.

Free Software is not free as in "free beer", it's a lot more than that.
It's also as far from idiotic as you can get.


If you don't like the free software, don't use it.
Simple, is it not so?


No, it is not, but it is obvious that you fail to see the difference between
free and free of charge. Until you grasp the concept of Free Software
(www.fsf.org is a good start), you should not use words like "simple".
