There are a number of reasons for my deciding to slowly leave the Macintosh platform: I want to focus more energy and time on free and open source platforms – I might donate what I would have spent on Leopard to some deserving projects. It’s been fun, these 20 years with Macintosh. Be Helpful.

September 17, 2007 There is an interesting discussion happening between Holly Ross, soon to be ED of NTEN, and Allan Benamer , about web statistics, and whether or not nonprofits should be “transparent&# and publish their web statistics.
