The Mac platform was always considered a premium platform, hence much of its software is shareware or commercial. In the recent days more freeware applications have emerged, but the majority are small utilities and not full scale applications. Enter the world of GNU which can not only provide "free" applications as in beer, but most importantly, "Free", as in Freedom.

I didn't the article because the title is misleading. It says "The need for GPL Free Apps ...". GPL free apps? In my ears that sounds like apps without any GPL! Please take greater care when posting. I also keep commenting that there should be a better distinction between what has been cut'n'pasted from the article and what is not (I realize that it is not relevant for this particular post). Another thought is that perhaps cut'n'pasting from articles is a little bit lazy. Taking critical look before posting.
