Amazon code release irrelevant, Kindle is still closed - Ars Technica

Openness of a platform and openness of a software are not the same. You can run a MediaWiki site with closed membership, for example. When the code for a device is open source, then third parties are more likely to be able to develop features for it without the device manufacturers' permission, making the device/platform more open. But still, with things like firmware update, the openess could be compromised.

Digg - This Is Why I Love Linux.

Installation and GUI were said to be the biggest hurdles for wider Linux adoption. Now drivers? I think it is not about drivers. It is probably about branding and brand awareness. People would be worried about an OS that they have never heard of.
