stumbled across these articles on newsforge. A Must read, it marked as You will be ROTFL Guaranteed!
I am amazed with the things he says!
quote For the moment, though, I advise sticking with Linux unless you have software requirements that can only be met by using the Windows XP operating system, and if you must use Windows XP you should try to get a computer that has it preinstalled rather installing it yourself -- unless you are a hard-core techie/nerd instead of an ordinary user. unquote
This seems to the Linux equivalent of .. I think.. FUD spreading and a weak attempt at that. I have a modem that doesn't work under Linux but been using it for about 3 years now with Win98 and Win2K. Should I write an article... would that be FUD ? Gishu

If you read the article carefully, you will notice one main thing, It is marked HUMOUR! A point which i clearly stated in my email.
It is nothing but a satirical look at the reverse perspective, windows from linux users. We see a lot of FUD from the anti-gpl bunch. I wouldnt even rate this article as FUD. I think most hardcore GPL believers would take a bit of offence if we got into mud-slinging. We aint saying its perfect, we are simply saying it works for us.
to put the GPL perspective simply. if you do not like it, do not use it. No compulsion. Thats the freedom.
(Unlike proprietary vendors who use every trick in the book to force users to stick with them)
