Keeping on the green theme, a snippet from the BBC at
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4176126.stm --
Mr Romeo insisted on using open source. Not only was it cheaper,
he says, but it also allowed him to better customise his product.
"With proprietary software, innovation comes from the people in
marketing," he says. "But with open source, innovation comes from
the guy who is really in the market. It comes from someone who
knows the city."
What real-world environmental uses of free software have you seen
in the UK? Have any of you seen these cool cars in Cordoba, Spain?
Now back to the vuelta...
