System: Linux mussel 2.6.10-1-686-smp #1 SMP Fri Mar 11 01:49:45 EST 2005
        i686 GNU/Linux
Architecture: i686

>Description:
	Dru's (excellent) article contains a couple of small grammatical mistakes I
	would like to see fixed.
>How-To-Repeat:
	- Use of numbers instead of words to indicate the volume of
	  open-source projects.

	- List of ways of finding commercial support vendors doesn't read quite
	  right, IMO.
>Fix:
