Yes Jobs is a blowhard - however, consider:
Maemo has binary closed parts as well.
MeeGo/Intel
"we at Intel believe that software-related technology should continue to be afforded the opportunity to obtain patent protection."
http://www.jamesshuggins.com/h/tek1/...tent_intel.htm
Nokia and Intel defensive on MeeGo Linux patents
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/05...oid_microsoft/
Open source has closed parts and is funded by software patent holders that do not share the core high value modules.
How much money is Google making off Android, its closed more than other open source projects to give Google control (deception = evil)
so, Jobs is a Jack Axx, but has a valid point about Android, the most closed open source project ever.
