“Levy-yhtiöt yrittävät kosiskella radion musiikkiohjelmista päättäviä mm. kalliilla konserttimatkoilla saadakseen mahdollisimman paljon soittoaikaa omille levyilleen. […]
Levy-yhtiöt käyvät viikottain esittelemässä kanavien musiikkipäälliköille uusimpia julkaisujaan saadakseen ne soittolistoille. Yhdysvalloissa nousi kesällä kohu, kun kävi ilmi että yksi yhtiöistä lahjoi listojen kokoajia.
Kulttuuriuutisten tekemä puhelinkierros kotimaisille musiikkipäälliköille paljasti, että Suomessakin heille on tarjolla muutakin kuin levy.”

OpenOffice Goes LGPL
“On 2 September 2005 Sun announced the retirement of the Sun Industry Standard Source License (SISSL). As a consequence, no future Sun open-source project will use the SISSL. Projects currently using the SISSL under a dual-license scheme, such as OpenOffice.org, are dropping the SISSL and thus simplifying their license scheme as soon as the development cycle allows. […]
Effective 2 September 2005, all code in the [OpenOffice.org] 2.0 codeline will be licensed exclusively under the LGPL. All future versions of OpenOffice.org, beyond OpenOffice.org 2 Beta 2, will thus be released under the LGPL only. The change in licensing implicitly affects all languages and platforms in which OpenOffice.org is distributed.”

Mac Mini offer quickly dropped
“Apple has dropped a 30-day trial offer for its Mac Mini after less than 12 hours. The promotion […] offered a 30-day money-back guarantee, and was available only through Apple’s online store. […] The rapid retraction of the offer prompted plenty of speculation online among bloggers and those in the Mac community.”
“News of the deal quickly spread, and it’s being widely suggested that the offer became rapidly over-subscribed, prompting Apple to withdraw the offer to any further customers. That may have been the intention all along. Some companies pay good money for the kind of coverage the Mac Mini test drive programme has brought Apple, most of it suggesting or at least implying there is very strong demand for the computer.”
