Linux is terrorist - according to MS...

The truth is out now... Not to get on some random rant, but I really don't get their reasoning on trying to kill everyone especially since they love to use commodities that are made and designed by the same people they try and kill.

Well then. I'm a terrorist, and so is Microsoft:

Funny, never ceases to make me laugh.

Once a terrorist, always a terrorist.

Doesn't matter. There were no semantics argued. A blanket statement allows no use of such criteria of neither "time" nor "business associates" which might be contradictory to the current heart of the matter.

Wait: you think that terrorist thing from Microsoft is real?

No, just playing along with blanket statements. I wouldn't put it past some of my customers to REALLY believe things like that, with the official looking Windows marquis etc... Like I said earlier, it never ceases to make me laugh. From my experience, Windows, Linux, Apple etc... depend on each other just as much as they depend on being a separate from each other. Look at the front offices in Redmond. They are all running brand new Macs with Windows installed on them

I say report them to Microsoft for the use of the graphics and then see what happens. If MS goes after them then we can somewhat believe that they do not agree. If MS does not go after them, then we know what MS really thinks.

I just wonder why it's 8 out of 10 terrorists instead of 4 out of 5...
