No that's not what it's about - thatis called "comedy relief" as far as I'm 
concerned...

Yes, I hate Windows - not Windows specifically, but all bloated, 
overpriced, under-functional and badly marketed software.

Yes, I *use* Windows in my work, managing a large network. If I could 
replace my desktop machine with a dedicated Linux box, I would.

This list does have a propensity for slagging Micro$oft quite often, and 
that's not necessarily a bad thing - we slag plenty of other people as 
well... BUT the list provides a wealth of technical information about Linux 
and, I dare say, had done a fair bit to promote Linux / Windows 
connectivity via things like SAMBA, etc.

Having said that, I'd respectfully suggest that you lighten up a bit !!



Regards,

Jon
