Well, turns out that in my anger and haste I didn't read his response correctly after all. He actually says, "doubting Linux's support _for Hebrew_ in Office programs and browsers" (my emphasis). That makes more sense, of course, and in light of that everything he says later on (Linux not being a viable OS independant of Windows) also seems to be about Hebrew support only. Well, I confess I'm not really uptodate wrt the status of Hebrew suport in things other than kde and lyx, so I'll leave others to judge how wrong he is on this score.
