Stephen Fry talks about free software (GNU 25th Birthday)

Stephen Fry speaks about why he endorses open source software for common usage. He breaks down his argument from owning a computer and sharing information in making it better (like good science does) to some of the principles of the GNU/Linux platform. Finishing off with a happy 25th birthday to the concept of GNU.
