According to Raymond, “software is largely a service industry operating under the persistent but unfounded delusion that it is a manufacturing industry.” He argues that this delusion encourages price structures that are pathologically out of line with the actual breakdown of development costs. With your article you have shown how Black-Scholes formula can be used to support Raymond’s proposition. Very elegant. Very convincing.

And so this means that The sale value of a software is determined both by factors intrinsic to the software itself and by factors outside the software. And another thing would be, it is true enough that the biggest problem with discussing open source, we are all from different software worlds and we are dealing with our own environments. And with this kind of idea i do believe that having open source in the industry doesn’t necessarily mean that the entire individual can own or even the entire universe owned it.

It is very hard for me to understand this chapter, because of some technicla terms that this chapter was saying, and so it is a nosebleed for me that’s why it took me long hours of reading this just to understand every detail of information that it’s giving to us readers of this book. But i do learned some terms that stack in my mind and that also make me relate as one also of It people and student in the IT industry or technology.

The term open source was I think the main thing that I’ve learned from this. from the very start i know that open source is good, open source is very reliable, and open source was very broad and complex. For the reason that a lot of people specially those who are in line or engage in technology are those people who really likes everything to be open source because this helps one another this helps build profitable relationship from one another and so this help build a conversation in the market that is tight enough.

If everything is open source, everything also becomes complex but everyone can be benefited. And so open source can be good and can be bad depending on how you see it.

With this chapter i would like to emphasis what I have learned after reading and even before reading this chapter. I want to emphais the word “passion” from this time. why? this is because I find the person who is talking to this chapter is a passionate guy. After reading I’ve learned that The amount of achievement that you accomplished as a business or as a company or as an organization which is determined by their commitment but the quality of their output is determined by the passion that they have put behind it. Passion is not simply doing things with a dire desire for excellence and difference. It is the attitude that pushes a company or a business not to settle for anything less than the best possible results of a certain goal.

This is the fire that keeps them warm and conditioned in everything that they do. It is a feeling and a voice within them saying “let’s go! Let’s do it!, lets do it perfectly! “For peoTo this thsis ple and just for people. It is the energy that makes them feel good at night, realizing that you have done something meaningful and there’s no more to come.

Obviously this simply explains the history of hackers. And so before reading this page I really expect that this book will help me realized what are hackers what are their use in the information technology world or environment, and moreover are they useful in the society especially in the world of information and computers? do we really need them?

From the very start what i knew about hackers is that they are those people who are trying to ruin or to break  information’s, applications and the like. Meaning they are those who are doing works illegally, because they want to get or to own something that is forbidden and the like.

And so after reading this page or after reading this chapter i may say that it is true enough and this book has a point, that indeed most of the IT people or even those who are related to technology or computers are those individual who are also trying to learn hacking methods or being hackers, in order also for them to know how is it going to solve and might as well protect themselves to those hackers also.

We cannot deny the fact that the origin of hackers in the society was really amazing and really unexpected because it is true enough that people are getting smarter when it comes to technology through the years.

It is obvious enough that when we read the introduction of a certain book like this book, we can say that it tells you the summary or the content of what this book is all about. And so based from what I have read, with thie introduction of this book i may say that it has a very deep and reliable information about open source, information  technology economy,digital age, computer software’s and hardware’s and and the like.

This also says, this will also tackles about the hackers, as well as their cultures, their tribes, their activities, objectives and a lot more. According to this, this books is has also a collections of essays that explains everything and anything about the topic that they have for the readers and later on readers like me will eventually find the secret as to why this book was entitled ” The Cathedral and the Bazaar”.

As I remembered Mr. Paul Pajo told us that we were lucky and we were advance because we have the chance to read this book. And so I am hoping that I will be lucky through understanding the message of the book through it’s chapters.
