The point was that Groklaw couldn't have even existed without IBM's contributions. Big freakin' difference.

You are so very wrong. Groklaw existed before it even moved to iBiblio, which had long before that received an IBM donation (BTW, there is anti-IBM information on iBiblio). This is recorded fact. Meanwhile, Microsoft is paying money directly to people who research papers about matters important to Microsoft. That is also recorded fact.

Where there is no connection, you see a strong one. Where there is a clear strong connection, you see none. Everyone should take back any suggestion that you are astroturfing for Microsoft -- even they wouldn't be that stupid. You must just be a freelance Microserf.

And since Groklaw melted down numerous servers, it could not get free hosting without iBiblio's help. It would have ceased to be a going concern. IBM donated hardware to iBiblio; therefore, whether you or Pamela Jones or whoever like to admit it or not, IBM is Groklaw's benefactor.
