Shouldn't that be: .....Lame, Poorly Researched, but Well Refuted and Paid "Report" (work for hire) Attempts to Confuse, but Fails Miserably.....?

That sounds MUCH closer to the truth.

For those not familiar with Mr. Stallman, the man responsible for the questionable Linux license (or contract, there seems to be some legal confusion that has yet to sort itself out in a courtroom), as well as controlling authority for many applications packaged with the various versions of Linux, you can learn more about him by visiting his daily news section on his own personal website:

I'd suggest reading it before drawing your own conclusions as to the value of his statements.
