"Knife the baby"??! Good Lord, he must be doing something I haven't heard about. He's a war profiteer, maybe? He's been selling munitions to terrorists? Peddling tainted infant formula to Third World countries? Selling cars that he knows to be unsafe at any speed? Charging exorbitant rents for rat-infested tenements and kicking orphans out onto the street? Do you actually picture the guy like he's in some flickering silent movie, twirling his mustaches and tying Nell to the railroad track? Come on. He made an OS you don't like, and his company has engaged in some aggressive and occasionally questionable business practices that aren't significantly different from what thousands of other businesses have done--or would if they could. There aren't any dead babies. A little perspective would be nice. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
