Followup to "Who Cracked Microsoft?" -- 11:15 pm CST, Update by J.t.Qbe

Last weekend we let you know about an article at salon.com which suggested that perhaps the free software/open source movement was behind the recent cracking of Microsoft's network. After reading that article, I sent an email to the author to tell him my disappointment in his unfounded suggestion.

Today I received an email from Andrew Leonard, author of that salon.com article. He reminded me about his followup article which actually appeared on Tuesday. In his article, he admitted that he was somewhat hasty in his suggestions and didn't intend to slander the entire community. Good reading. And while you're over there, check out his article series titled "The Free Software Project." He does some good work, and it's good to see that he's responsive to his readers too.
