For Linksys it was just incorrect information. We all do that at times. We're civil, we understand people make mistakes, don't remember perfectly and find false information from sources. You could have said "oops" and all would have been forgotten.
But you couldn't do that. The incorrect information was the cornerstone of your argument, so you couldn't retract it. That is because your argument being wrong would mean that Linux is good for business, and that would destroy your worldview. Can't let a few facts get in the way of your false preconceived notions. So it remains on the record as a lie, not an innocent mistake, because you used it to further your argument and never retracted.
For the "Russian," you simply yet again tried to smear me with your libelous lies, repeated several times despite my correction. The worst part is that you dishonestly, quietly changed your text later, hoping nobody would notice. Do you really think we're that stupid?
After this your usual habit is to slink away back under your rock for a while, then to pop up again totally forgetting your many proven lies. And when cornered in yet another lie you'll remind me of the time I fooled you, oh great security expert. Repeat, ad nauseum, ad infinitum.
No the original lie on this thread was that Linksys was a company that owed its existence to Linux, which is clearly far from the truth. Very few models use Linux and the main one that did had it ripped off LOL. Go attack the poster that claimed those lies is what you should be doing of course, but as your history indicates you mostly attack anyone that questions the green party leftists behind Linux instead. That and attack Republicans, Christians, and generally any American product. You try to pass yourself off as a supporter of Apple, by erroneously trying to claim they’re a free software company when they’re not, but have even let it slip you’d prefer their products be made by Sony. Even tried to claim Japanese cars are more American than American cars one time, LOL probably are in you foreign based fantasies.
