------- abstract ---------
REVOLUTION OS tells the inside story of the hackers who rebelled against the 
proprietary software model and Microsoft to create GNU/Linux and the Open 
Source movement. 

On June 1, 2001, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said "Linux is a cancer that 
attaches itself in an intellectual property sense to everything it touches." 

Microsoft fears GNU/Linux, and rightly so. GNU/Linux and the Open Source & 
Free Software movements arguably represent the greatest threat to Microsoft's 
way of life. Shot in cinemascope on 35mm film in Silicon Valley, REVOLUTION 
OS tracks down the key movers and shakers behind Linux, and finds out how and 
why Linux became such a potent threat. 

REVOLUTION OS features interviews with Linus Torvalds, Richard Stallman, Bruce 
Perens, Eric Raymond, Brian Behlendorf, Michael Tiemann, Larry Augustin, Frank 
Hecker, and Rob Malda. To view the trailer or the first eight minutes go to 
the ifilm website for REVOLUTION OS. 

Revolution O.S. is director J.T.S. Moore's first feature length documentary. 
Moore previously has worked as a screenwriter for Walt Disney Studios. He 
earned his B.A. in history from Stanford University and his M.A. in 
filmproduction from the University of Southern California's School of 
Cinema/Television. Moore's previous film, the Civil War action-drama SHOOTING 
CREEK, premiered at the Telluride Film Festival and later was licensed by 
Starz-Encore. Moore was born and raised in Atlanta and currently resides in 
Los Angeles.
