April TUX Magazine

[Rick Tomaschuk]

I had attempted to advertise a Linux/NUI related promotion in their
classifieds sometime ago and they screwed up to placement even though I
was well before the deadline. They missed the issue for a time sensitive
ad and refused to credit me but rather ran the ad at a later time once
my event was over. If you'll notice they are 'Micro$oft centric'. Where
do you think all their revenue comes from? Monopoly power...from dealers
ads.
