I spent some time compiling this list and seeing how many nice games are available for Linux I couldnt help but wonder: why are we still using Vista? There are so many Windows advocates who bring as anti Linux argument an “absence” of games for Linux. Well, they are wrong! There are enough games from Linux and the great news is that they are free and fun!

Black Duck Software announced today the availability of Black Duck Code Center software to help manufacturers accelerate software development through the managed use of open source and third-party code. Code Center manages software component selection, project approval and license tracking designed to maximize benefits to organizations from their reuse of open source and other third-party software components. The new software addresses the complexities involved with mixing internally developed code with code from open source communities, partners, vendors, outsourcers and other third parties.
Now this is a great idea and one that will save a lot of folks time and money in the long run, Baldy
