"Costs are amortized over eight years and include purchase, gas, insurance and maintenance."

The monthly total that I pay for car sharing in Toronto has yet to exceed the $200 I used to pay for a parking spot alone.

I see that he's starting to ease up on the anti-Novell rhetoric a bit -- there's even a new name for his site:

3. CrunchBang or CrunchEee.

About the only thing the two companies share is a similarly deflated stock price...
