ah, using the golden eagle tactics to label open source as "commieware"

As long as you guys keep handing over shovelware to the ChiComs for free -- and thus alleviating them of any need to spend hard currency on infrastructure and instead prop up their military -- you're Commie sympathizers...

Yur pals at ms didn't seem to mind giving the chicoms access to the windows source code.

Supervised entirely by MS attornies -- and never actually handing over Windows source code.

And bill gates certainly gives plenty of money to left wing causes.
So does Steve Jobs and many other tech leaders. And, regardless of whether you and I like that, that's entirely his perogative. Hmmm...maybe you're a closet lefty here to spread lies to enrich your favorite causes...hmmm...

"Supervised entirely by MS attornies "

My goodness, you and the tin turkey are laughable. Yes, the chicoms fear bill gate's attorneys. How preposterous. First, open source is evil because the evil chinese communists have access to it (along with the rest of the world). But those same evil chicoms can be trusted because, well, they signed this slip of paper that has the full force of MS attorneys behind it!

"and never actually handing over Windows source code."

Are you incredibly gullible or incredibly dense? Either way it seems to be by your own choice.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding here, but the way I read it, you're telling me all Firefox users are commie sympathizers? Get a grip. It's a freakin' BROWSER, for cryin' out loud. Wouldn't hurt MS any to have a little competition, before they cannibalize and then crush them.

I can't remember the poster who said it, but like them...I use Firefox, I like it, but I don't expect to see it steal any significant market share from MSIE...at least not anytime soon.
