Author Cool...A movie about Linux

While browsing through netflix, I can accross this:

Revolution OS (2001)
For the past two decades, a group of computer hackers, neocommunists and entrepreneurs has been gradually undermining Microsoft's monopoly and fundamentally changing the way software is developed and owned -- a revolution that resulted in the Linux operating system and the Open Source movement. This fascinating documentary explores the OS movement's origins and depicts the grassroots nature of Linux and OS as they march into the mainstream.

Anyone seen it? I'll check this out and report if it's any good.

Sorry but there's not much information on this for one to tell if its what it worths in all truthfulness. Maybe a url link to more on this topic would shed much light into this topic. Thanks for sharing anyway and have a great year in 2003

Yeah, let us know what you think of it. It looks interesting....a lot of OSS's more influencial individuals are in it.

Just saw it. Was decent, not spectacular. It's about an hour and a half long of interviews (Stallman, Torvalds, the CEO of VA Linux systems, etc). Worth a rent.
