An Interview with RMS

Richard Stallman talks about GNU's 25th anniversary, Google Chrome, sharing non-free software, preinstalled GNU/Linux on PC, NDA, OLPC XO : " ... I found out about a Chinese company, Lemote, which makes machines that have no non-free software (as far as we can tell) and which Windows does not support. So now I am using a Lemote machine. It is a prototype and has some inconveniences, but I am not ashamed to promote it."
