Typo - "Technology and Influence" paragraph, 4th sentence:
"But these companies learned that simply investing in developer time, although fruitful, could be even more useful if tied to an overarching strategic effort&mdash. Think bug fixes vs. software architects—lots of companies push bug fixes to upstream open source projects, but some of these same companies began to learn that coordinating a sustained effort with a deeper commitment paid off with faster feature development, which could be good for business."
I believe Windows 10 is only free for upgrades from 7/8 - but also not sure about windows 10 on a core 2 duo. Might meet minimum specs, but we all know minimum specs are only for the O/S, not for the other stuff that they want (let alone would need, like firewall).
