open hardware (or free hardware-whichever you like). they are total craps!!!

They are just ignorant, which is what we all are when we start off with Linux. It does take some thought to fully grasp the meaning of free. BTW what is the hindi word for free as in freedom. Maybe we should use that here. Also this freedom imposes the responsibility of being able to accept criticism without rancour, as well as understanding the limitations of various sections of society brainwashed into believing the rubbish dished out about trademarks, patents, copyrights and IP.
