If there's anything I've learned from Groklaw, it's that we have some damn good lawyers who will stand up for Open Source. And plan B is the Nazgul who work at IBM put up a damn good fight for Linux as well. My hat's off to all of them, they've

Did somebody mention Jokelaw? We don't need their kind stinking up the place.

Linux has ripped off concepts from Windows and someday that's going to come back to haunt them. I can't get anymore specific than that, because I'm not very well informed. I'm just pulling crap out of my *ss, like usual.

I just wish I could get Steve Balmer in a room with Linus Torvalds so Steve could pitch a chair at the little commie.

Seems a little buggy. Add:

Why are you so anxious to give your money to billionaire Balmer when "commie" Torvalds is trying to give you something for nothing?

The main idea behind capitalism and free enterprise is that the seller generally tries to maximize price while the buyer tries to minimize it. If you are a "consumer" of software, you should be tickled pink that someone wants to give it away for free -- especially when the quality is far superior to what you would otherwise have to pay for.

The reason Torvalds can afford to give his software away, of course, is that the marginal cost per copy is essentially zero for all practical purposes. And that is why the cost of software should be going down faster than the cost of hardware were it not for the MS monopoly, which people like you support through ignorance.

You need to put in a routine to accuse all Open Source advocates of being Communists, and to remind people that Linus Torvalds' father was a Communist so therefore Linus is a Communist too.
