I had to look it up:boffin = one engaged in scientific research.
That aside, this is America. Someone is always suing someone and every judge has an opinion. Much ado about nothing. But do carry on, ye *nix bigots.
If I were a *nix bigot, why would I be using Microsoft products, eh? I am using Windows XP Pro and I can definetly say that this is the best OS that I have used from Microsoft. MS seems to have finally created a stable (if highly bloated) OS. I have no problems using Microsoft products but I know that Microsoft is not the innocent monopolist that Microsoft apologists claim it is.
Carry on yourself, ye prejudical Microsoft enabler.
