Re: Which planet are you from?
Let me say this: I agree with some of what you said, being a Linux user myself, but I cannot agree with you completely.

Perhaps the most noticeable thing is your screen name. I know that Windows users have made similar comparisons with Linux and Open Source, but to say that Bill Gates is Satan is going too far.

I'm not going to say much about Mike's previous post. I admit that I nearly passed out laughing after reading it. But I will say that your response is not likely to do any good for the open source community. Although you have some good points, your attitude is enough to disqualify them all. In addition, you are sounding very much like some of the fake "Linux users" on ZDNet.

Please take the time to consider better what you are saying, and make sure your attitude affirms your message rather than contradicting it.
