Conspiracy theory bordering on the insane now... I guess the EU will erect a shrine on the mount to Linus next.

ZDNET is filled with harsh articles against MS, but those you all just cheerlead.

This article is interesting and it IS news precisely because Linux is becoming popular.

I guess you want all of the benefits of increased adoption with none of the drawbacks (ie - deeper analysis of both the platform and the process behind its development).

Its just really hillarious to see a bunch of jihadists on a message board dragging out every excuse possible and going so far as to disparage one of the key KERNEL ARCHITECTS rather than simply reading and learning from the article.

If you really cared about the OS and werent just zealous holy avengers on a crusade against the "evils of MS and the USA", you'd find articles like this interesting and enlightening rather than a sign of black helicopters circling.
