You bring shame...
Linux Geek...

Your overzealotry and unfounded statements time and time again bring shame to those of us who are legitimate Linux fans/contributors who work hard to bring Linux to the world. I make my living on Linux deployments and its hard when meeting a potential customer and they don't want to do Linux because of people like you scaring them off. YES Geek, one actually showed me a printout of one of your posts, and said, "See? Why would I want to bring something like this in when it brings up such animosity?"

You said...
"Microsoft Windows XP and 2000, Apple said"
Apple patched OSX, but M$ is incapable of patching windoze.My advice: get Linux!"

This statement is sooo flawed. This is a software issue and not an operating system issue. There have been vulnerabilities that exist on both Windows and Linux when they shared a common application.

A true Linux Geek understands there are inherent vulnerabilities no matter where you go. The solution lies in how you approach and manage those vulnerabilities, not in a fabled assumption that an OS is rock-solid-secure and can never be impenetrated.

Again, Linux Geek, you bring shame to the rest of us in the Linux community. Stop trying to put us out of business!
