Last Thursday OSNews had the opportunity to meet Miguel de Icaza, founder of Gnome, Ximian and among other things leader of the much discussed, Mono project. Miguel is a talented and versatile developer but he is also a very intelligent businessman able to understand the industry on many different levels. Talking to Miguel guarantees that you are very quickly taken away by his enthusiasm and optimism and his thoughtful strategies and vision on how OSS will take over the world.

If people in the third world cannot afford Windows, how in heavens name can they afford the rich hardware to run, say, GNOME? Desktop Linux is inordinately resource hungry, which is odd as it has a fraction of the functionality (on the desktop) that OS X or Windows does. I really wish the F/OSS community would get their heads out of the clouds and be logically consistent in their efforts.
