Twisting the facts huh Jellyclock.
Once again from the top. First you claim hundreds of thousands contributed to your precious Linux and now it is 16,921 based on unique e-mail adresses. That is closer to the truth but still not there. Now Fedora Core 3 contains 4 CDs full of OS and applications. If you eliminate all the applications, the people actually working on the OS is a handfull. By the way the number of people contributing to a software project has little or no coorelation to the quality.

Now then to the rest of your babble. You made no reference to the omissions and lies that were the bulk of your last rant. Got any answers for the fact it is pre-SP2 OSes that are the ones spreading the bots and that the Trustworthy Computing Initiative might just be working? How about the answering how Linux distros which are put out by corporations does not have a corporate agenda. Do you really think you are not pushing IBM, Redhat and Novells agenda? Finally do you want to justify how you wanted to accuse ZDnet of bias for not having the Burst story even after they ran it?

"Again, I ask you - if your car was faulty, and you knew it, would you go on a list and make excuses for the manufacturer, all the time belittling anyone who didn't drive the same car as you?"

The inevitable car anology is flawed in several aspects. I don't blame the car manufacturer for peoples misuse of the car and when did I ever belittle someone for using Linux? I use it myself. The difference between you and I is that I don't have to attack Windows to make me feel good about using Linux. I recognise there is room for both!
