NOBODY GIVES A ***** - GIVES A ***** - GIVES A *****! LALALA LA LA LA LINUX SUCKS. How childish of me.- schestowitz, on 09/01/2008, -6/+7Bad. Bad troll. Now go home and think about what you've done.
Microsoft, internal document: "Ideally, use of the competing technology becomes associated with mental deficiency, as in, "he believes in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and OS/2." Just keep rubbing it in, via the press, analysts, newsgroups, whatever. Make the complete failure of the competition's technology part of the mythology of the computer industry. We want to place selection pressure on those companies and individuals that show a genetic weakness for competitors' technologies, to make the industry increasingly resistant to such unhealthy strains, over time."- kretik, on 09/01/2008, -1/+6Your IRC logs are a source of inspiration. I like this one:

where you insinuate that Microsoft is responsible for Hans Reiser killing his wife.
Who pays you for all this Roy? Who pays you to smear people like Miguel de Icaza non-stop on your attack blogs? Who finances this 24/7/365 FUD machine of yours? Surely no one can spam half the internet every day unless they are being compensated somehow?

How about instead of this, you write a section title like:
"Linux is not hard to learn and use"
That way, you're not telling the reader that she's asking you something, and the article sounds less like a cheesy advertisement.
