We already introduced Dell's new laptop wonder, the Z600, to you earlier this week. What makes this laptop special is that it contains a small ARM motherboard which runs a special version of openSUSE Linux, allowing for instant access to basic functionality like checking email, browsing the web, and playing multimedia files. What's news, at least for OSNews, is that research from Dell has shown that people spent 70% of their time in the Linux environment.

They don't recommend but they still acknowledge as free software licenses. Their definition doesn't exclude GPL incompatible licenses. That claim is bogus. So is the claim that they only recommend the GPL license.
I never argued that point. My original reply was a joke, as indicated by the smiley wink face. The definition of course does not exclude GPL incompatible licenses, as that would go against OSI that decides whether a license is Open Source or not. We are saying the same thing, just I made a joke out of mine, thinking you might actually take it as such. I really have to remember that joking on OSNews is bad stuff, as people get bent out of shape too easily.
