Having been a free software advocate I read an article called
Why you should boycott Blu-ray and HD-DVD (http://bluraysucks.com/boycott) from the web.

Simply speaking it is about "format war" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Format_war) between the two alliances from multinational technology corporations making two standards of formats of 405 nm wavelength blue laser disc.

Although I'm against the both, but for some practical concerns or some curiousity I'd like to know which one will win the format war.

This is when and where I made the chart:
April 10, 2006 (ST GMT +8 ) Wang Tau Hom, Hong Kong (114E11 22N21)

I just hate anythings to be monopolised. The reason is that they don't only affect myself, but they do harm to all of the poor and the marginalized.

I asked several more questions on these kinds of stuff sometimes. Just they are a bit difficult for me to interpret. I'll post more if somebody here are interested.

For this chart, should I look for the 1st and the 7th's rulers? But how to decide which house to rule which camp?
