Story: SAP slams open source 'socialism'

Gee, such stupid statements, such grand salaries. I should have been a moron instead of a scientist, I'd be rich!

The target is not Linux as such, this is just more propaganda attempting to confuse the issues of Copyright and Patent law. SAP, along with MS and numerous other heavies want the EU commission to adopt Software Patents. Of course it's not good to share - anyone who shares things should be hung because they must be depriving some greedy little weasel of money. Greed is good - if you had to pay for the air you breathe that's even better.

I really like that line about "Linux is not innovative"... because MS are copying the Apple GUI. It's like "It's going to rain today because the boss is wearing a green tie", or "Don't buy stocks from The Car Manufacturing Company because
the Printer Manufacturing Company is copying its designs from High Quality Printers Inc."

What's really sad is that most people are so dumb they can't even spot such an obvious 'non-sequitur'.
