Well if I'm shilling, I'm shilling for the USA. And you, whining the whole way.
No, let's get down to brass tacks for a minute.
I. We all know your bosses at MS are tightening the chains. So you come here on these threads to shill and fanboi MS. As if they need paid shills given their Borg-like marketing department.
Look, if you want to bash Linux, post your own threads and do it with other FReepers who feel the same way.
II. Directly related is that it's not just bad form to barge onto threads dealing with something you hate and deliberately bloviate just for the sake of it--it's childish and whiny.
And finally, with all due respect sir, I believe you're the one who's been whining and backstepping the whole time...
