To Roger Markus: Problem is that right now with no voice dictation that
works in Linux, there is not much choice for those who have arthritis or
some other disability but to use Windows XP and Dragon Naturally
Speaking or even Via Voice. :-(

Microsoft is publicly threatening the free world - disingenuously
saying that:

Microsoft's patents. The Linux kernel violates 42 Microsoft patents,
while its user interface and other design elements infringe on a
further 65.
Open Office.org infringes on 45, along with 83 more in other free
and open-source programs."
This after stealing for the past 12 years! Everything from generic
terms that they have no bloody business pretending to "own" (windows,
office, word, excel, outlook, money, front page, etc. etc. all general
terms equally owned by any user of the English language), to concepts
(Apple's GUI), etc.
Enough already! Microsoft is a convicted monopolist. The corporate
equivalent of a convicted felon and repeat offender. It's time to
boycott them and do everything possible to eradicate this cancer from
the world! It's immoral to use Microsoft and it's time to stand up
and oppose these tyrants!
