This is the first time I've heard him clarify that he will use a computer running non-fee software from time to time for convenience. He's not totally extreme.

"I don't mind using somebody else's computer once in a while, regardless of what software it has on it. If I'm visiting somebody that has a Windows machine, I'll use it to browse the net. It's convenient for me to do so. It's not an important right or wrong for me whether I touch his computer. But what I won't do is have one set up for me running non-free software."
I thought it was interesting.

Doesn't BSD have LIVE CD's like Ubuntu does? If he wanted to be free...he can ....even on someone else's computer.
Linux Mint 9 Gnome, Ubuntu 8.10 Easy Peasy , Open Suse, Windows XP PRO and others.

Since someone else paid for the license, I guess it is free to use.
