Screw them. They won't get a thing from me unless I give it away because I want to. Neither should you or anyone else :) It's funny how many Linux Zelots and/or GNU-wannabes have distorted the principle of freedom. The true spirit of GNU is to produce free stuff (with the exception that the stuff cannot be unfree) and the stuff should be free as in free speech - not free beer. I don't know how many times Stallman has repeated this goal - but still the Linux zealots and the GNU-wannabes still think about free beer. I've got news for them - beer isn't free until you're offered one. And isn't it also very bizarre that Linux Zealots - the main defenders of GNU/GPL - utterly hate the father of GNU/GPL? :) It's friday evening and it's time for :beer: -- Please state the nature of your medical emergency.

I was thinking, since many Linux zealots use a dollar sign to spell Microsoft why not use a Lira sign to spell Linux?
Because they could not use kbdconfig --xpto -h 1504 -v 1312 for configuring the keyboard.

Because most Linux zealots are too busy trying to figure the latest distro's "new and improved" directory structure to figure out how to type stupid foreign characters on their freakin keyboards (that is, if their keyboard works at all). ------- signature starts "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001 Please review the Legal Disclaimer in my bio. ------- signature ends

I think intentionally misspelling Micro$oft, Microsloth, Windoze etc... shows the immaturity of the majority of Linux 'zealots'. Come on... If they're so desperate to 'insult' MS, can't they come up with something a little more original ?

Jörgen Sigvardsson wrote: ...the stuff should be free as in free speech - not free beer This phrase has never made sense to me and contrdicts both the GNU movement and Stallman's own position. "Free" in "free speech" means uncensored by government. It means people are able to express what they want and charge what they will for that expression and the government can't do a damn thing about it (though they try.) The founders of the United States also recognized that speech could, and should, be owned by the originator for a time and mandated that copyright and patent laws be created (though both have been abused beyond belief.)

Well, of course you can charge whatever you want for whatever you do :) But I don't think that's what Stallman refers to. I think it's the fact that you are free to speak, and no one can take your spoken word from you and censor it. At least that's how I interprets that phrase. -- Please state the nature of your medical emergency.

What's with you guys and your hatred towards Linux? Did linux kill your children or something? Jees guys, grow up and use the tools that suit your needs. I bet some Linux programmers could write code circles around some of you any day.:mad: :mad: I use both for development, and I'll tell something right now, there are times where I wish i was doing certain projects on/for linux clients/systems. I'm new here, pardon the n00bing
